As well as a Moodle upgrade I'm also doing a 1.8 install for a college on<br>

I'm also going to test upgrading a 1.7 installation at some point today...<br>

Tom - are you updating XOT svn this morning?<br>
<br>
Jonathan - you've listed a number of xerte desktop issues in the Google doc<br>
- do these issues also materialise in XOT too?<br>
<br>

Database.php. Thanks.<br>
<br>
Mike H is going to help me move it all in the morning, so we can more easily<br>
mo0ve stuff around on the servers and sort out file attributes and so on.<br>
<br>
---CAN EVERYONE PLEASE CHECK THE SVN HAS ALL THE UP TO DATE FILES IN THE<br>
RIGHT PLACES PLEASE---<br>
<br>
I've just made sure the xerte runtime stuff is up to date, and copied the<br>
files from svn xerte to svn toolkits. Be good to know that all the language<br>
stuff, new models, xwds and so are all good to go as well. Thanks a lot.<br>
