Hi all ,

 Reviewed Sakai as LMS , I am interested in it 2.6 / 3 version , and hope
anyone could kindly help for the following questions :

 Conditional activities :
1. Sakai can perform conditional activities (like OLAT , Moodle) ? The
conditions are listed inside the course creation process ? Can add some new
rules (e.g. some students fail ...... , they should take more excrises , but
the passed one can go to the advanced courses directly) by users (tutors) ?

 Course Management :
1. Can users copy existed course structures (not course user data , e.g.
forum posts) ?
2. Can users reuse existed resources in diff courses (e.g. reuse existed
forum guides which is a HTML page in other forum) ?

 Standards :
1. Does Moodle able to import/export data using SCORM , CP , QTI format by
default ? Or 3rd party plugins should be installed ?

 User/Group Management :

1. Can users (tutors or students) search users inside Sakai for futher
actions (or inside other action , e.g. creating courses) ? Can tutors assgin
existed users (by searched results) to a course ? Or the tutors should add
the users one by one ?

2. Can users (tutors or students) create non-course related groups (no link
to and existed course or cross-courses , e.g. group for a project or
interest club)

Context Management :

1. What kind of resources (e.g. courses info , images and docs including PDF
and Words , questions , groups , etc) can users can search inside the
application ?

2. Can the resources be organized and searched in structure ? For example ,
there is a translation project A (a paper) , which contain other reference
(other paper) describe translation method A , and the method A paper refer
to other paper which describes forumla A . Therefore , there is a structure
"translation project A -- method A -- forumla A " . If users search
"translation A " , all these resources will be results .

3. If developers create new functions (e.g. a new question type or course
element) , how can its data join to the Sakai search engine ?

4. All resources can be full-text searched ?

 Non-functional module Management :

1. Are there any logging / exception / transaction module for developers or
administrators for helping in development and system maintenances ?
