[Building Sakai] My Sakai 2.10 wish list

[Poindexter, David Ray]

Why does renaming have to be in code? See, you have name "x" and then for internationalization, you have a way to specify replacement text based on locale.

This is the name of a tool. It really shouldn't be that hard to have a default, and then an easy override.

In short, no, I do not think any effort is worth spending on getting the entire Sakai community to agree on a name, unfortunately.

Thoughts?

Site info has had an overhaul in trunk and looks great. It would be nice to drop page order and roll that functionality into site info. I actually disable the ability to add tools from page order since its duplication.

+1 for site settings as the name.

Cheers,
Steve

What a fantastic list. I too dream of consistency – I think a lot of inconsistency comes from the different page templating systems, Wicket, JSF, RSF etc. they all have their own calendar widget and so on.

I have some comments.

+ Ass 1 vs Ass 2

We’ve thrown our lot in with Ass 1 and intend to port the handful of improvements that Ass 2 has over Ass 1 , whether we’ll have time is another matter. We are currently rewriting the Turnitin integration to use the new SDK.

+ Site Info – perhaps the name could differ on role Site Manage (for ‘staff’) Site Information (for ‘students’)

+ Page Oder – terrible name, I agree. The tool is also beset by problems and could do with an overhaul. If you use the Page Order tool, do you really need edit tools, isn’t all the edit Tools functionality covered by Page Order. Edit Tools could be dumped and replaced by an improved page order tool called “Tool Management”

+ Forums: “Too many tabs error” – I agree, how annoying!

Keep up the good work.

Subject: [Building Sakai] My Sakai 2.10 wish list

All,

Before the conference is over, I wanted to share my "wish list" for Sakai 2.10.  My list is based on feature requests and comments made about Sakai at our institution.  Just wanted to see if any of these items are also of interest to the broader community.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Alan Regan
