titleSubject: Heads up: kernel API change

SAK-3838
SVN r5918

There's a small change in the ActiveTool API. Any code that uses helper tools or otherwise uses the ActiveTool API will need to update to compile and be used with the new Sakai TRUNK, and for Sakai 2.1.2.

See Glenn Golden's 2/13/06 email for more info

J. John Gardiner - jgardiner@ucdavis.edu Sakai UI DG
Used Lisa mentioned that Kirk et.al. are interested in the skins work John has done for VM; John consented to Armando Arbizo contacting him and mentioned that there is a lot of information in the Sakai UI DG. John used a local instance for design process.

Keith - on Ilios; , currently importing from CATH? by termcode
Ray - Reordering working before & after feed - , if content, date, or time changes
. Erin's scheduling process in Ilios - : ordered initially by content
but that changes with faculty changes , i.e. solidifies that solidify topics and order (general sourse/session info),
; Erin then Erin matches to locations and date/time of offering
. The new process is a web form (w/AJAX?) to give her and faculty drag & drop functionality.

Dan - training session last Friday; lots of things we don't want to do; tools not taught as SVM would want to teach - ie, every tool, every function. not all tools are hooked into each other yet, or to gradebook. Student usage? study areas, faculty interest in allowing students interaction w/their materials; potential for confusion btwn sakai internal tools and current UCD tools. Need to firm up list of tools that
will even be optional. Will roll out additional tools as they are vetted as solid and useful to VM. Faculty reactions during training over duplicate functionality - faculty have limited time - 8 hrs for early adopters means less training time for others. Mental workflows don't adapt easily. Too many rabbit trails. "If you're showing this to me, you must want me to use it." Simple, short list of tools w/focus on what faculty really need.
