LMS Migration

The following links provide useful information for this project. However, the current meeting notes, plans, and materials are now on Basecamp (see Holly if you need a userID/password):

LMS Meetings and Notes

LMS Brainstorm - slouching towards a project plan and documentation

LMS Migration - once a decision has been made, how do we get there

LMS in the News - news items highligting current "externalities" and the changing learning landscape

LMS Environment - "externalities" and broader issues

Doctor Workflow

Sounds a bit formal, but I wanted a place to store tracking system items, such as feature lists and discussion surrounding how we track clients and sessions. It also occurred to me that this might be a good place to talk about how we use or want to use tools like this wiki (or even how we don't want to use it!).


Wiki Notes

waw 2006-10-27: LDAP login enabled. UVM affiliates please use NetID and associated password to log in

waw 2006-10-27: image upload enabled

When editing these pages, first log in (see top of page). That way the tracking feature will show your name rather than your IP address. Also, to "time stamp" a page with your name and date/time, type 4 tildes.

User groups and permissions for LRG Mediawiki

This installation of mediawiki departs from the default authorizations delivered with the base product. Most notably,

  • Authentication use UVM LDAP server; thus, use your UVM NetID and associated password
  • Default permissions for unauthenticated users not logged in are read and talk (ok, haven't verified talk yet)
  • Default permissions for LDAP authenicated users is pretty much the same
  • NetIDs in the following LDAP ou (organizational units) have bureaucrat privileges
    • "Academic Computing"
    • "Ctr for Teaching & Learning"
  • NetID LRG has sysop privileges


bureaucrat privileges include

  • move
  • edit
  • createpage
  • createtalk
  • upload
  • reupload
  • reupload-shared
  • minoredit
  • delete
  • deletedhistory
  • import
  • importupload
  • rollback
  • unwatchedpages

Sysops have all of the above, and

  • createaccount (which should have no use in an LDAP environment)
  • block
  • editinterface
  • patrol
  • protect
