[K12OSN] LON-CAPA?

[Les Mikesell]

Just noticed a freshmeat.net announcement that LON-CAPA now runs on RHEL
(thus should work on the Centos based k12ltsp).  It looks like
a monster, though.   Has anyone looked at it already?

The freshmeat blurb:

LON-CAPA (The LearningOnline Network with CAPA) is a learning
content and course management system. It offers an underlying
shared content pool from which instructors across departmental
and institutional boundaries can assemble granular learning content
for their courses. It has strong assessment capabilities, both
formative (homework and in-class using wireless PDAs) and summative
(online and bubblesheet exams), with a one-source multiple-target
strategy for the content. It offers students portfolio space in
which they can stage materials for submission to projects, and
provides a number of tools for synchronous and asynchronous
student-student and student-faculty communication. LON-CAPA scales
well with number of students, as load-balancing is possible across
the whole network of servers at participating institutions.
