[Using Sakai] [Building Sakai] iClicker and Sakai

[John Leasia]

The i>clicker folks have created a Sakai tool that we'll be using in 
production starting this fall. We've been checking it out over the last 
month or so in preparation. Seems to work fine. There is a tool that 
carries some web service stuff and that is used by students to register 
their clickers. Then there are some standalone tools
- an admin tool to do a one time config that also creates some xml that 
is used by the other tools
- a grader tool that gives a view of students in a gradebook like way
- an iclicker tool that is used to start up the presentation that 
students respond to

We are running 2.6.2.

There wasn't much we had to do integration wise. We asked i>clicker to 
make a security related change which they did. Other than that, it was 
adding it to the build, running the config tool (a one time thing, to 
create the xmls that then go along with the standalone apps on the in 
class computer running the receiver and show).

We are running 2.6 and my be interested in installing it.  Can anyone let me know what versions it works with and how large an integration project it is to get it running.
