10. Development Plans

This is the latest list of implementation time scales; the tranches of work should be in production by the first week of the stated term (or vacation). We will do our best to meet these deadlines but it is often difficult to estimate the amount of work required before actually starting. In addition, some of these milestones are based on work being undertaken by other members of the Sakai community, obviously we cannot predict when their deadlines will slip!

  • MT 2012 Collation of all graduate training courses within the Student Enrolment System
  • Late 2012 Store ad-hoc groups in Oak Groups Store (& reuse in WebLearn, Nexus etc.). This has had to be rescheduled due to circumstances beyond our control. We are very sorry for the delay.
  • Easter 2012 Move to Sakai v2.8 (2.8-ox1)
  • Easter 2012 New profile tool. This is a complete re-design and re-development of the existing Profile tool in Sakai. It gives you more of a Facebook style interface for editing your profile. In addition you have a comprehensive set of Privacy controls to allow you to choose who can see what part(s) of your Profile. With Profile2 you can post updates (integrated with Twitter), search for people with common interests, view their profiles, view their connections, add them as a connection, send private messages, upload and share pictures, and much more. More information about new profile tool.
  • Easter 2012 Further Nexus integration
  • Easter 2012 Sign-up tool enhancements (based on user feedback)
