I want to give my personal thanks to Stephen for working so hard for over a year to make this happen. He has been helpful in getting other vendors on board with IMS Basic LTI and always has responded to requests and queries almost immediately. A great example of how awesome Open Source people can be.
Here is a video about IMS Basic LTI if you are interested:
