[Building Sakai] [DG: Teaching & Learning] Interface Mock-Ups In Sakai

[Nate Angell]

John is right. rSmart has integrated the Icodeon SCORM player in Sakai  
2.5-2.6, but we have not yet taken the steps to complete gradebook or  
tests & quizzes integration.

We are definitely interested in contributing the code to the  
community...our default position ;)

We want to get some experience with it before contributing and have  
some clients interested. If there's someone in the community who wants  
to license Icodeon for themselves and is interested in beta testing  
the integration, let me know and we should be able to work that out.
