I am working to document our new AJAX enhanced UIs. This one is an interface for LORS, the .LRN Learning Objects Repository. This specific use case is not at all general, but I think there are UI elements we can reuse for a more general solution.

One of the interesting rewards working in an open source community provides is the opportunity to learn about work being done in other countries.

FAA (Open and Accessible Training) is based on *.LRN* to support accessible standard-based (IMS, SCORM) collaborative and adaptive courses along the full life cycle of eLearning.

In turn, EU4ALL (European Unified Approach for Accessible Lifelong Learning) aims to build an open and accessible service architecture for all to cope with the accessibility requirements in higher education institutions in Europe. *OpenACS* toolkit (using the web services support developed by Wien) is going to be used.

I've posted a "wink" of the class registration system we did about a year ago for MGH on the med.openacs.org site.

Dr. Carl Blesuis did a poster presentation on the system at AMIA. It's a great poster that covers the collaborative features as well as registration. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be on the web any where. I'll post when he puts it up. Meanwhile I hope you enjoy video the tour of "dotLRN Ecommerce" a very flexible and powerful course registration tool for .LRN. If you would like to learn more about the features of this package please refer to the Register to LRN page on Solution Grove.
