From docs:

  • local - very similar to the current course-based file manager, except user-based
  • moodle - an interface to another Moodle site, accessed over a secure mnet connection
  • jsr170 - an interface that can talk to anything that supports jsr170 (eg Alfresco)
  • oki - an OKI emulator allowing us to access things with OKI interfaces,like Fedora
  • briefcase - an interface to Yahoo Briefcase
  • myspace - an interface to MySpace files (perhaps via this MySpace API)
  • googledocs - an interface to Google Docs
  • s3 - an interface to Amazon S3
  • skydrive - an interface to Microsoft's SkyDrive files
  • box - an interface to box.net
  • facebook - an interface to Facebook files
  • merlot - an interface to the learning materials in Merlot.org
  • flickr - an interface to flickr
  • youtube - an interface to YouTube
  • mahara - an interface to a Mahara installation
  • Dspace - a repository from MIT
  • DOOR - another popular open source repository
  • SMB shares - An interface for windows shares e.g. personal folders on network drives. Would need to link with LDAP as usernames will often be wholly/partially the same as network folder names. This could be done using SAMBA, but would also need to work on windows machines natively. See this block for a linux implementation.
  • WebDAV - to access arbitrary external WebDAV servers

I have no idea what it is, but there is a request in this forum thread http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=109779 for a 'myDMS' plugin.

This discussion suggests an audio recorder plugin using an open source flash widget. Very worthwhile IMHO as I've just been trying to find handheld recorders to use for podcasting and realised how much better it would be to have direct input to file using a laptop mic.

Not expecting anyone to consider this seriously until after the release of Moodle 2.0

However, a MindTouch (DekiWiki) plugin would be very useful. Since MindTouch shares a common ancestry with MediaWiki, there may be some common ground here.

Closing this to get it off the 2.0 radar, will let the few small remaining subtasks speak for themselves. Obviously at this stage we are not adding new plugins to 2.0.
