[Server-devel] Fwd: Moodle as OLPC Server

[drew einhorn]

On another platform for another project
there has been some discussion of using Moodle.

But, folks think the make they system more difficult
to use, maintain, and administer.

Any thoughts on how this issue plays out
for the OLPC community,
and in the wider Moodle world.
