[sakai-pmc] REPOSTING > Sakai 11 Tech Assistance Needed > Lessons Enhancement Project (LEaP)

[Mark Reilly]

Hi Josh,

Sorry I saw your question on Friday but I wasn't sure if I should reply as I am not on the PMC and I can't say what the overall plan is. I pinged Dr Chuck yesterday about responding to you but I didn't hear back from him yet. 

Question 1. Dr Chuck has been working on this lately and it seems to be working well   I have been working with it locally but he'd have to update you on the status. 

Question 2. I am continuing to develop Morpheus. We ran into some issues when we inlined the iframes because some of them use bootstrap.css and it was overriding the portal CSS. I have been updating the templates and the CSS to add a namespacing convention so we don't run into these conflicts.

We don't have a consistent development build with both the iframes turned off and Morpheus running. I'd like to have one going forward as the responsive portal matures. 

You sent me another email too and I'll respond to that momentarily.

Thanks,
Mark

You can get a project status update at https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/PED/Lessons+Enhancement+Project which includes a link to a community survey (http://goo.gl/ZpDlb0) that was jointly developed with the Teaching and Learning Group.  Please feel free to take the short survey or distribute it to others in your organization.

I'm hoping that folks from the PMC can take a moment to provide some feedback to help ensure our LEaP work will be compatible with this release.  It would also be helpful if there was a Sakai 11 dev environment that we could access, might that be possible (CHUCK > I noticed that EDUCAUSE that you had one running, might that be an option?)

Also, I understand that this will *not* create responsive designs at the "tool level", is that correct? If so, are there thoughts around how Morpheus might be used to create responsive designs at the tool level?
