[Portfolio] Sakai Conference and Learning Capabilities v1.0 Release

[Josh Baron]

Colleagues,

Yesterday, David Goodrum announced the v1.0 release of the Sakai Learning 
Capabilities document that the Teaching and Learning Group (which has 
included representation from the Portfolio and UX Groups) has been working 
on over the past year (rather intensively).  This document, which flowed 
from conversations at the 2009 conference, includes a series of what are 
being called "Design Lenses and Facets" which we (the T&L Group) hope will 
contribute to the vision for Sakai 3 and be used in the design and 
development work related to this initiative.

The T&L Group would like to use the upcoming Denver conference as a time 
to discuss this work with a broad and diverse cross section of the 
community as means to get input on them and identify ways in which the 
materials, as well as the T&L group itself, can be of most help to those 
engaged in future design and development efforts.  Below are several 
opportunities at the conference for folks to learn more and talk with the 
T&L group about this initiative. 

We would love to talk with and hear from as many people as possible!
