The Learning Registry module for Drupal 6 that we (Kevin and Ali from UMich) started back at the Plugfest in Arlington is now full project status on drupal.org.  I've been making improvements continually over the past months, then in the past weeks, with the Drupal community to prepare the code for full release.

The 1.0 version offers two Learning Registry functions:

a.) Publish nodes to the Learning Registry (using Dublin Core 1.1 as a descriptor)
b.) Search Learning Registry resources via slice interface

If you are running a Drupal 6 site, any feedback would be much appreciated.  Also - if you'd like to collaborate to add additional features (paradata from clicks and Fivestar, resource alignment, etc), that would be greatly welcomed!!

A Drupal 7 version would be great.  We started in 6 (near a year ago) as 7 was recently released, but I know feel its a mature product and a significant UX upgrade compared to 6.  I think the 6 module will have value in time to come (the community supports release - 2, so version 5 right now) as many sites are still here, importantly with good content to publish to the LR.

That said, I'm a bit overcommitted at the time being, so couldn't lead the effort, but would be happy to contribute as time permits.  CC'ing in Bryan and Bill who do a lot of Drupal work and may have further interest in helping step this up to 7.

We can definitely help out with a D7 port -

Patrick, if you have an immediate need for this, you should probably jump in and run with it.

We would definitely be available to help with code reviews/testing short term, and with some additional work later in the summer.

Cheers,

Bill

Bryan - that would be great to see what the auto-tools can do as part of a D7 migration.  Perhaps we're relatively close, so thanks in advance for checking out what that looks like.

Bill - thanks much for the offers for review and testing - I know you are super busy with other work, but more eyes on this are always appreciated in any capacity.

It's not a need directly - but I'd be keen to have it ready on the system.

I doubt it'd take a long time to port - though my Drupal isn't great (it's ok)
