[Xerte] Xerte Online Toolkits V1.0 Released

[Julian Tenney]

The Xerte Project has reached a major milestone with the release of
Xerte Online Toolkits v1.0.

Toolkits v1.0 brings a range of new features to the browser-based
version of our authoring tools, allowing users to easily collaborate in
the development of learning materials.

Authors will find an improved interface and a number of workflow
enhancements, a wider choice of page templates, much improved support
for RSS publishing and open courseware syndication, additional
accessibility controls and better support for collaboration. Content is
more readily shared, reused and repurposed through the ability to export
and import projects.

Developers will find a more easily portable and customisable
application, and find it easier to extend the existing templates and
develop new ones, and the ability to share toolkits data with other
applications, and integrate toolkits with other systems.

System adminstrators will find an improved installer, support for
windows servers, and a management interface for day-to-day
administrative tasks.

Many thanks to everyone who has contributed throughout the beta
programme.
