Re: [Bodington-developers] 2.8.0 release

[Adam M. <ada...@ou...>]

Hope I 'm not too late. But we should make it VERY obvious that Bods now has
the apache 2 licence. 

Kit would be good also, Colin, to pen a press release which we give to
OSSWatch mentioning the new licence. Perhaps Randy could suggest other
places to send the press release.

| 
| I'm about to finalise the 2.8.0 release (it's complete, apart from release
| notes and change log).
| 
| * I'm not including a source zip (2.6.0 included one) but it seems
| unnecessary.
| 
| * Anyone already written a change log? Otherwise it'll have to be a
| summary of what's on the wiki
| page for 2.8.
| 
| * Are we happy to re-use the release notes from the previous version (with
| minor edits):
| 
| "Bodington is a free, institutional scale VLE implemented and supported by
| a wide group of educational
| institutions, led by Oxford, UHI, Leeds and Manchester. More information
| can be found at
| http://bodington.org.
| 
| In the package you will find three files:
| 
| 1. Bodington License: The OSS License under which you can use and develop
| Bodington.
| 
| 2. bodington_war: This is main Bodington application. To use this, you
| should copy bodington.war to
| your servlet container's webapp root (you may need to either restart or
| reload it, depending on your
| container's instructions). You must then create and configure a supported
| database before you can
| use the Bodington application.
| 
| 3. bodington-quickstart_war: This is a preconfigured version of
| bodington.war which uses the
| lightweight HSQLDB database. It's designed to get you up and running with
| Bodington with the least
| possible effort. To use this, you should copy bodington-quickstart.war to
| your servlet container's
| webapp root (you may need to either restart or reload it, depending on
| your container's
| instructions). You can then login directly to Bodington using the sysadmin
| user account with no
| further configuration. This version is not recommended for production
| use."
