New Moodle LAE Releases for 2.6.10, 2.7.7, 2.8.5

There are three new CLAMP releases. There are no new LAE features; these are maintenance releases only. This release incorporates both the initial releases made by Moodle core on March 9, and the emergency releases made the same day after a regression was discovered.

You can download the updates from their project pages:

The next stable releases on the 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 branches are slated for May 18. Core has scheduled the Moodle 2.9 release for the same window; CLAMP anticipates releasing a beta in late May and a production release following the MUG and Hack/Doc Fest at the College of the Holy Cross in June.

I would like to thank Kevin Wiliarty (Smith College) and Willy Lee (Carleton College) for packaging and testing this set of releases.

New Moodle LAE Releases for 2.6.7, 2.7.4, 2.8.2

There are three new CLAMP releases. This is the initial release on the 2.8 branch. The 2.7 and 2.6 releases include an updated version of the Roster report; the 2.7 release includes an updated version of the Edit Dates report.

The 2.8 release includes major changes to the LAE distribution: we have removed LAE Grader, LAE User, and “old” Quickmail; we have added the News Forum local module. These changes are fully described in the 2.8 release notes below. The removal of the LAE grader reports is made possible by the significant improvements to the core grader reports in the 2.8 release, with which Bob Puffer of Luther College was heavily involved.
