[pmwiki-users] IMS Basic LTI?

[Joel Fisler]

Dear PMWiki-Users,
I am from the University of Zurich and we have PmWiki running here. Since the latest release our open source learning management system (LMS) OLAT - see http://www.olat.org - supports the new IMS Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standard which allows you to connect your LMS to other tools if they offer LTI-support. I know that e.g. MediaWiki has a BasicLTI functionality but that doesnt help in our case since we work with PMWiki :-) 

So my question: Is anyone in the PmWiki community working on an IMS BasicLTI implementation?

Here's the link to the official IMS Basic LTI Website:
http://www.imsglobal.org/developers/BLTI/

All major LMS today support LTI, here's a blog post from the LTI-founder Chuck Severance:

For us a seamless integration of PmWiki into our LMS would be great of course. And looking into the future I guess LTI is a good way to go... 

Greetings from Zurich
Joël
