the latest commit http://cvs.moodle.org/moodle/repository/mahara/repository.class.php?r1=1.5&r2=1.6
does not seem correct, there is probably problem with $PAGE not pixpath, in any case pixpath is mandatory, you should not work around it

I talked to Time about this issue before, the problem is, in web service, there is no moodle_page existed (exchanging json string only), do we really need to setup a useless $PAGE object just in order to use pixpath?
