  • Unfortunately ran into unexpected issues with the Course, Section and Sequence conversions (these 3 need to be converted together because of a shared base class and have extensive functionality associated with them). Will need some more time to get these ready for review.

  • Since we are getting close to finishing up the conversions going to start looking at the discovery for phase 2 next sprint as well.

  • The Courses, Section and Sequence XModules conversion needs a second review now.

  • The discovery for phase 2 is in progress.

  • Also need to investigate the last two Poll and CustomTag XModules some more. In my initial testing a few weeks ago I wasn’t able to get these to work so if that continues to be the case we may just to have remove them instead.

  • Had a meeting last week with Dave and Kyle to finalize the technical details for phase 2. Currently working on finalizing the estimates. Will share once those are ready.

  • Also working on the last PR for the Poll and CustomTag XModules (it turns out if they are in a course import while they are broken in Studio they still show up in LMS).
