Jan 12, 2021	@Ned Batchelder (Deactivated) @Giovanni Cimolin da Silva		Deep linking implementation is underway Pull requests are nearly ready for simple data presentation: HTML, image, link. Deep-linking to a file will require the LMS store the file. Context membership service is an uneasy fit for edX moocs. Requires new batch external-id API in edx-platform Ned to get some reviewing help for those APIs. Giovanni will write an ADR about how we will implement the context membership service TNL overall is interested in LTI independence from XBlock.

LTI Testing Tool - Access questions, Marco to add action item for this LTI Provider Review scope TBD - uses external python library currently. Timeline check-in @David Joy (Deactivated) - Version bump for LTI xBlock (new release tag missing) @Marco Morales (Deactivated) - look into LTI tool usage for testing compliance once we get access and complete orientation.
Jul 14, 2020	@David St. Germain (Deactivated) , @Giovanni Cimolin da Silva , @David Joy (Deactivated) , @Marco Morales (Deactivated)	Status Update Review to start. LTI Provider injection included LTI Variables - Unique identifiers (block location) this discussion is on the ADR discussed whether unique identifiers exist for course tabs or other levels of the course hierarchy. resource link ID necessary for LTI Launch LTI configuration in Studio for Course level still TBD, team is building this into Django admin for now. Open question about how to handle configuration for LTI to be used throughout the platform. For now focused on course level configuration. plan is to use string based loose configuration for now as plans /models evolve here for configuration at different levels. (as opposed to django foreign keys) ADR for Studio / LMS boundary discussed → What are the implications for LTI here? ADR exists for whether or not to include LTI keys. can easily include in export for 1.1 but not for 1.3. LTI launches focused on learning content primarily, also course tabs. Potential future use in course content sidebar but this is TBD. for now centralized configuration is the important part, can explore multiple UIs for configuration or additional slots in the future. example - Piazza or Yellowdig might have configuration for main app + sidebar (if they eventually support in-context discussion)	@Marco Morales (Deactivated) to look at requirements for Studio course run level configuration view / wireframes @Marco Morales (Deactivated) to explore / configure future (out of scope for now) org / program level UI configuration.
July 28, 2020	@Giovanni Cimolin da Silva , @David Joy (Deactivated) , @Marco Morales (Deactivated)	Pausing work for now. Needs review: TNL-7318 - line items implementation. POC implementation, decided to split the work into smaller pull requests. Move configuration to model, second one to improve auth around LTI, and third to implement line items. First is up for review. This blocks the other steps.
