 Description  « Hide
http://docs.moodle.org/en/Complete_Install_Packages_for_Mac_OS_X explains that "These do not have sufficient security for public, production servers--only use for private, local testing purposes.", but this warning additionally belongs (perhaps in abbreviated form, with a link?) on http://download.moodle.org/macosx/.

I've had several conversations with people where I explain to them (sometimes repeatedly) that Moodle4Mac should never be used for a production system.

I added the following text to the download page:

Some people told me to write that Moodle4Mac is designed for developing and testing locally on an Apple computer. You need to make it more secure if you will open Moodle4Mac for an intranet or for the internet.
