Moodle integration Block

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi Everyone,

It seems like VCL and Moodle would be a good fit.
(Especially, if they were both configured for Shibboleth.)

Just wondering, has anyone done any development work for
a VCL block under Moodle 2?

We would also be interested in this as well.

There were some necessary changes to get it working with Shibboleth-based authentication, and there are some local customizations in how we handle RDP connections, but I would be happy to share what we have.

The Moodle block (as written) runs on a heavily customized version of VCL 2.2.1, but the modifications are only necessary if either Moodle or VCL use Shibboleth authentication. Once version 2.3 is released, I will be updating the Moodle block, and I will write some detailed instructions for how the two may be integrated.

I have a Moodle (2.x) block that works with the VCL. Users can schedule, connect to and delete reservations. There were some necessary changes to get it working with Shibboleth-based authentication, and there are some local customizations in how we handle RDP connections, but I would be happy to share what we have.
