@iandolphin24 I am way late for a trip to the UK - perhaps late April/Early May - to do a Sakai3 hack-athon at Cam plus a few side trips.

@paulscott56 I was just using localhost:8889 - was that wrong? I am not an expert on these things.
@charlvn Yes - it is a lot of fun stuff - my current play ground. THe stuff on simplelti.appspot.com is the protocol doc.
Wonderful day at UCT talking about CloudSocial, social research, etc. Pub bound.
Inside the building at UCT. And wireless works thanks to Stephen. There are many Sakai shirts here :)
My connectivity-enabled part of the day comes to an end... Tomorrow University of Capetown with Stephen and David.

Another day - less productive - I tried to get and failed to get Chisimba 3.0 t talk to a non-standard MySql port. I did learn a lot.
End of the networked day in South Africa for me. Sakai LTI redo works peachy - sweet screen shots Chisimba+Melete and Chisimba+Moodle

Seeing the wisdom of Lance Newman and Greg McFall to use direct launch when behind a proxy server. Rewriting Sakai LTI to work better :)
Using the Sakai /portal/pda is very cool when working over a slow link! Brilliant!
Just figured out how to simulate the Chisimba login process - w00t! Hint: $login = $this->objLu->login($username, $password)
@mikeloukides Chapters are checked in - the SA network situation required some tricks. Please check the exercises for style and wording.

@mfeldstein67 We will get you wired up - wireless is weak here in LB. We just got a Polycom USB microphone now that does the audio nicely.
