[development] SCORM API module

[Bill Fitzgerald]

To date, we haven't --

But it feels like it's time -- in the last few days, a few different 
people have asked in a few different places -- two in comments on blog 
posts, and one forum post, in addition to the module and the group.

I actually sent out some emails earlier today to people who had 
expressed interest in similar developments earlier in the year/in the 
past. This seems like a good time to coalesce all interested parties 
around the group on g.d.o to make sure we find some common ground as a 
starting point and avoid any parallel development, or any development in 
isolation.

Also, the mechanism for import is pretty key -- I think any SCORM 
project would have a lot to learn from the FeedAPI -- the FeedAPI that 
required some detailed planning, but now that that is in place, 
extending the functionality is much simpler.

So, spread the word -- all parties interested in SCORM, head on over to 
http://groups.drupal.org/scorm

Cheers,

Bill
