Dear All

CETIS and Knowledge Integration are working together, with community  
input, to develop a content transcoder service prototype. What is  
being proposed is a web service which will convert content into a  
variety of standard packaging formats (e.g. IMS CP & CC and  
SCORM). The project also plans to look at the most frequently used  
proprietary formats such as those used by WebCT, Blackboard and Moodle  
and at significant UK application profiles such as NLN.

The first phase of the project will be looking at prioritizing which  
formats and platforms the service should use and general user  
interface issues. So, we are looking from input from the community to  
help us with:

*prioritising which formats to be transcoded
*supplying test-case packages
*verifying the quality of the transcoded results in your platform of  
choice.

If you'd like to get involved, or just find out a bit more about the  
project, detailed information including the project brief is available  
on the wiki @ http://wiki.cetis.ac.uk/Get_Involved_with_Transcoder.

Best wishes

Sheila
