The trunk of Melete properly imports a MHE export with SimpleLTI - upwards compatibility is a good thing.

It is more fun to do a clean repo full checkout compile of #sakai from Umich wit 100Mb/s connection than from home on cheap DSL
@iandolphin24 I had all you can eat Indian for lunch today - it was wonderful - but I ate too much.

It looks like David, Steven, and Anthony have gone over the trunk of #sakai with a toothbrush. Much shinier. Many thanks!
The students declared that #si502 is the hash tag for www.si502.com - off we go!
Spent about 12 hours yesterday trying to see if I was the one who broke trunk - I don't think I broke it.
Digging through a Sakai trunk problem - trying to implicate or exonerate site-manage - takes way to long to run a test with a clean repo.
