[Building Sakai] OAE 1.0.2 maintenance release now available

[Anthony Whyte]

Sakai Open Academic Environment (OAE) 1.0.2

RELEASE DATE: 21 OCT 2011

The Sakai Community is pleased to announce the release of the Sakai Open Academic Environment (OAE) version 1.0.2.

Sakai OAE is an open-source platform that promotes collaboration and sharing between users and interoperability between systems. It embraces a new vision for academic collaboration informed by the needs of learners, teachers and researchers. Academic networking capabilities encourage people to connect and participate actively in communities that span beyond the traditional boundaries of classroom and institution. Powerful capabilities around content – creation, authoring, reuse, presentation, and commenting – permit mash-ups and remixable experiences of ideas, connectivity, dialog and media. Enhanced search capabilities aid discovery of people and content. A widget-based architecture simplifies both development and integration with external systems.

WHAT'S NEW

OAE 1.0.2 addresses a version mismatch that was noted between the 1.0.1 release tags and binaries. Additionally, sparsemapcontent dependencies on two driver bundle "snapshot" developer builds now bind properly to fixed versions while both the solr bundle base pom.xml <scm> element and webstart package base pom.xml <finalhostlocation> properties element now reference correct paths. In all other respects, OAE 1.0.2 is identical to OAE 1.0.1.

These six commits comprise the changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2:
