SMCCANDLISH  "Do not use Apache 2.x"? You're kidding, right? How hard can it be to simply document what has to be twiddled to make this work under the current, modern version of Apache, which is almost certainly going to be what will ship with MacOS X 10.5, and already what most serious Mac-based webmasters are using (either via Fink, DarwinPorts or a manual install). Anyway, this seems like a great project and a whole lot of work, to support only a dying server. Might as well have made this a MacOS 9 only app. ;-)

DR3VI1  Problems seem to happen with this version 1.5.1 and the newer version 1.5.2 of replicating Course Content data.

27 Duplicate records are always created. Also when creating content data When Using Mozilla you get A popup saying "No content data found". IE you get a "page not found error" From what I could gather it's an IIS Issue their having with this software, and are unable to fix.... From what I could gather on the net this ONLY Works with Apache Server, So heads up folks on IIS

I'm only giving it a low rating because there was no warning about the IIS, I had to spend hours blowing my brains out trying to figure that one out. Other than that it seems like a cool system.
