Sakai 2.0.0 Release Announcement (via EdTechPost)

A lot of folks have been waiting for this, and here it is - the Sakai project have release version 2.0, which amongst other things includes a Gradebook feature in addition to updates to the Samigo assessment tool. I am undertaking a review of Sakai 2.0 for Edutools right now that we will hopefully have up in a few weeks, and so should have a much better idea by then of what is actually all there. - SWL
