Free Course-Management Software

(Via Chronicle of Higher Education) A cooperative venture by several major universities to build free course-management software is expected to release the first version of its product today, together with the complete source code, so that any college or individual can customize and enhance the program. Developers of the Sakai Project software concede that Version 1.0, which will be available free from the project's Web site, is not a mature product, and that they do not expect many colleges to use Sakai extensively until Version 2.0 is released next summer.
