Pre-empting Martin, I've now moved the thread from sugar to the XS Devel list...<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 9, 2008 at 5:56 PM, Martin Langhoff <<a href="mailto:martin.langhoff@gmail.com">martin.langhoff@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

</div>Yep. That's a start. To coordnate work on Moodle, let's move that part<br>
of the conversation to <a href="mailto:server-devel@lists.laptop.org">server-devel@lists.laptop.org</a> :-) Offline<br>
moodle is a bit of a deep pool, so some familiarity with moodle is a<br>
good starting point...<br>
</blockquote><div><br></div><div>Indeed, and the deepest part of that pool will be to fully understand gears and how it can recreate what moodle already does in a smaller, faster, and localised fashion. There is a possibility that the Jolongo people join in here and move from AIR to gears, since their bubble was burst concerning AIR not being open source. Also, their code will be the best place for a starting point, I think. I've mailed them again today to ask if they can give us that code (which they claim is open source) and whether they are going to seriously join the coding efforts in the gears camp... otherwise there will be 3 independent offline moodles being built (seems a bit of a waste...)<br>
