[Building Sakai] Investigating site exports from Sakai 2

[Speelmon, Lance Day]

I would greatly appreciate your input regarding exporting Sakai 2 sites to XML.  See:

http://lancespeelmon.wordpress.com/2009/09/22/investigating-site-exports-from-sakai-2/

<http://lancespeelmon.wordpress.com/2009/09/22/investigating-site-exports-from-sakai-2/>Key questions:


 1.  Does anyone actually depend on ArchiveService.archive()? My instincts tell me no since most of the tools do not implement it. Am I wrong?
 2.  Could we usurp the ArchiveService.archive() interface and change the behavior so that only site structure is exported without student content?
 3.  Do we leave ArchiveService.archive() alone and create a new API?
 4.  How many tools still need to implement archive()?

Thanks, L

As we prepare to start working on a Sakai 2 -> Sakai 3 migration effort, I would like to help organize community contributions.  There are a number of roles and skills that need to be filled and your participation would be highly valued.

What can be done immediately:

1) Collaborate on defining the migration project plan.
2) Investigate LTI as an underlying mechanism for exposing Sakai 2 tools within the Saki 3 portal.
3) Investigate Moodle's export/import architecture and file formats.
4) Develop a Sakai 2 Resources (i.e. ContentHosting) to Sakai 3 JCR data conversion.

If any of these tasks sound interesting or you have other ideas you would like to share, please use the wiki space below.  Please take the time to declare your area of interest on the Contributors page.
