[sakai2-tcc] Informal Lazy Consensus - Tools Survey

We want to focus on teaching and learning tools, not administrative tools. That would eliminate Delegated Access tool (suggestion from Bryan H) and Admin Perms tool, correct?

I suppose we can add the others, since they are all teaching and learning related in some way.

Is there both a Mailtool and a Mailsender tool in core? I remember that there are duplicate email tools but I thought maybe one was core (default)?


The list would be now:
( I removed Profile and Roster tools)

Adobe Connect (web conferencing)
Assignments2
Big Blue Button (web conferencing)
BlogWoW (Blog tool)
Clog (Blog tool)
Dashboard
Gradebook2
Kaltura - (video management)
Melete (alternative to core Lessons tool)
Mneme (alternative to core Test & Quizzes tool)
SCORM player
Signup tool
YAFT (Forums)
