> The changes described by SAK-25587 (and below) have been committed to
> trunk and will soon be merged to Sakai 10. These changes are intended
> to alter the default behavior (especially for new Sakai adopters), and
> existing OSP users should be able to easily continue to use, create
> and modify portfolio sites in Sakai 10.0 with the following change to
> sakai.properties:
>
> site.types = course,project,portfolio
>
> Please let me know if you have any questions on how to re-enable
> portfolios in Sakai.
>
> Thanks!

> Hi Beth,
>
> Will the visibility of the radio button be controlled via
> sakai.properties. If so, I think that would be fine as institutions that
> want to continue using OSP can set the property accordingly. I do think
> institutions should have the ability to enable the button and create new
> portfolio sites as long as they know what they are getting into. But
> hiding the button by default makes sense to me.

> A message to users of the Open Source Portfolio tools in Sakai:
>
> You may have recently heard about the proposed status of the Open
> Source Portfolio (OSP) tools in Sakai 10. In the near future, a
> proposal will be put forward to the Sakai Project Management Committee
> (PMC) to do the following:
>
> *OSP in Sakai 10 Proposal: *The Sakai release team will disable the
> Portfolio site type. This would mean that existing portfolio sites
> could add OSP tools to existing sites, but users could not create new
> portfolio sites in the default Sakai distribution. Re-enabling the
> creation of portfolio sites would require a configuration change and
> re-deploy. Alternately, an admin user could change the site type in
> the Sites tool to convert newly created sites to portfolio sites. The
> following Jira has been created to track this work at
> https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-25587
>
> *Rationale: *The OSP portfolio tool plays an important role at a
> number of institutions. However resources for developing, maintaining
> and QA testing of the OSP tool set have become scarce as the community
> starts to focus on other, more up-to-date open source options,
> especially Project Karuta, an LTI-1 tool (
> https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/OSP/Portfolios+for+the+Future+of+Sakai).
> Therefore, we probably do not want institutions new to Sakai adopting
> OSP, when the support for this tool is not strong. It is likely that
> OSP will not be a part of Sakai 11 and for this reason, should not be
> promoted as a preferred tool in Sakai 10. It should stay fully in
> Sakai 10 core in order to provide time for institutions to plan their
> next stage in managing their portfolio functionality.
>
> My position on this proposal is that given the lack of new development
> and QA resources for OSP going forward. it seems inevitable that OSP
> will not be a part of Sakai 11 and that hiding the radio button for
> creating new portfolio sites in Sakai 10 is a reasonable step to
> foreshadow the future. At the same time, keeping OSP as part of Sakai
> 10 for the next several years will enable any institution currently
> using OSP to plan for the future with ample time and due consideration
> for all concerned stakeholders. I am therefore in favor of the proposal.
>
> In saying the above, I need to correct some of the information I
> conveyed those attending the OSP Community meeting on Monday, February
> 3, At the time, I did not understand that members of the PMC prefer to
> hide the radio button for the creation of new portfolio sites in Sakai
> 10 regardless of whether the current critical and blocker OSP issues
> for Sakai 10 are resolved. However, if these several issues are not
> resolved, the radio button for new sites would be hidden AND OSP
> functionality in Sakai 10 would be rolled back to that of Sakai 2.9
> (making the new Indiana University enhancements to OSP unavailable in
> Sakai 10). The good news is that we are well on our way (but could
> still use more help) to resolving the current critical and blocker
> issues for OSP in Sakai 10 and if no additional issues are found (that
> cannot be resolved in time), OSP will continue to be a core tool set
> for all current users in Sakai 10.
>
> If you have questions or concerns or would like to discuss this issue,
> please post to the Sakai portfolio list at
> portfolio at collab.sakaiproject.org or, if you wish, contact me directly
> for more information.
