We now have a Moodle installation on the Sandbox Server! Visit http://www.sandboxserver.org/moodle/ to check it out. It's still very experimental, and there isn't any actual content on there, but if you're interested in trying it out head over and create an account. If you need elevated rights, contact me with your username and a brief description of how you plan to use them.

This is great - thanks a lot Draicone! The one thing I would mention with regard to setting up accounts is: should we *require* people for their full name and location in order to set up an account, or make it optional (as on-wiki)? Also, I notice you cannot *create* content simply by logging in, and so to do this you'd need "elevated rights" - just generally pointing this out. Cormac

I'm not too familiar with Moodle, I'm trying to finetune the configuration to suit WV a little better at the moment. The location and full name requirement came with Moodle; I'll see if it can be removed or if we can set up some generic WV accounts. At present I'm handing out elevated rights to anyone who wants them; JWS has administrator access as well and I understand he's experimenting with it at present.

Thats cool. We have non-used moodle instalation at school servers, but they reject my request of higher rights to have a look how it looks inside. I already registered, so I dont mind, it asked for full name and country, but most moodle applications I know doesnt need this. So I would be happy to recieve higher rights, to try to creat a study module and experiment a little bit. My user account is "Jan Lochman". Many thx.
