XBlocks that aren’t in the base install

 @Kyle McCormick

Some XBlock are on the testing sheet but aren’t in the base install:

• https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/169

• https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/162

• https://github.com/openedx/build-test-release-wg/issues/161

should we:

• add these to the base edx-platform reqs?

• add these to just the test env?

• remove these from the test plan?

• not standard xblocks in open release

consensus today:

• do not add any of these to the release today

• post-nutmeg, we can discuss adding them to the edx-platform base requirements. @Sofiane Bebert will reach out to the Product WG to see if they have opinions.

• loose consensus: “if it’s not in the base installation, we (BTR) don’t support it”

• @Dean Jay Mathew 's colleague may be able to maintain pdf, will consider for Nutmeg.1

How did the pages & resources bug get fixed?

@Carlos Muniz @Kyle McCormick

We’re just wondering how this bug got fixed: . We assume some flag was changed?

• Toggled waffle flag to return item to legacy version however….

• are there issues with the wiki portion?

• need a pr to fix the wiki issue as was removed without a deprecation ticket

• needs to be restored to legacy version in nutmeg.

• May be a showstopper for release. @Sofiane Bebert to update status

When Olive comes, we’ll need to decide whether to include frontend-app-course-authoring, which this issue can help us understand.

Feedback/Update on Course visibility issue

@Ghassan Maslamani

Regarding the course visibility issue, as reported in and .
After doing investigation along with @Kyle McCormick feedback, and further testing.
My conclusion is:
- My changes might not be needed
- We need to document the finding somewhere
- Suggest long term changes, i.e. renaming toggles, packages..etc
