Moodle Software
by Rajan 25 Apr '07

25 Apr '07

Dear Friends, Moodle 1.5.2 for Windows - a free software for design and administration of interactive courses over web - appears to be a good tool of immense potential for those who want to design distance mode of education on any subject. I have examined the peripheral areas of the software and would like to know a little deep about it for designing interactive self instructional Courses on Decentralisation. So I would like to be in touch with those who are conversant with the software and can demonstrate the mechanism of designing courses. The manuals in the internet appears to be cumbersome to use and learn. Please send your response.

flooding of lis-forum mailbox
by Mailing List Admin 23 Apr '07

23 Apr '07

Dear Member: Of late, there has been a considerable increase in the number of of spam and virus infected mails received by LIS-Forum postings' id (lis-forum(a)ncsi.iisc.ernet.in) We do have spam and virus filters installed on our mail server but as to be expected, they are not foolproof. During the last weekend, over 100 virus infected mails (but striped of virus by the virus filer) had reached the lis-forum mailbox. Most of these mails were from 3 / 4 mail ids. I'm not sure if the desktops from which the virus infected mails are reaching lis-forum are infected or something else is causing this problem. For the time being, I have deleted those email ids from which virus infected mails are originating from the lis-forum subscription list. These deleted Ids would have got an intimation to that effect. They can re-subscribe anytime after ensuring that their desktops are not infected with virus. This morning (23 April) two such postings were accidentally broadcasted by the moderator. These two messages DO NOT contain virus but they should not have been broadcasted. Very Sorry about it and the inconvenience caused is regretted. Thanks for your cooperation. - Moderator
