[sakai2-tcc] Evolution of tools

[Steve Swinsburg]

We should bring Adrian Fish into this conversation and see where Clog [1] is up to, as it is the third iteration of the same Blog tool. The first iteration is the current blog tool, the second iteration was used in production at Lancaster for a couple of years and was Wicket based, the third is a version of the same written in HTML/Trimpath. In all cases, the UI is the same but somewhat enhanced, but the backend was made much more robust.

It is the third that I would like to see as a replacement as a blog tool is a valuable selling point for Sakai.

cheers,
Steve

However, judging by recent feedback at the Spanish National Sakai congress, end-users are still looking forward to using this functionality. What should be in the release document and are there going to be any plans to foster the improvement of a replacement? The same questions for the mailtool?
