Hi Paul,
In responding to Ludovic I may have covered some of the questions you had.
The only object s for far that would be accessible to XWiki scripts are
Sakai resources (e.g. documents, links).
I do agree the granularity of fine grained permissions in XWiki is very
flexible. We just had to manage the mapping of Sakai user/group roles,
that are specific to Sakai (course) sites, and expose the granular
permissions of XWiki.
In your comment there was one thing I wasn't clear on about providing
queries/reports on Sakai LMS data. Are there specific ways in which XWiki
can help with that process? Within Sakai there are some reporting tools,
but there is still desire to improve on the data collected and provide
better tracking tools.

Adam,
are Sakai objects going to be accessible to the XWiki scripts?
This could have a great impact I believe. (e.g. to provide specific views
on the LMS data; e.g. "the sessions of learners that have been taking this
kind of learning activity and had issues"?)
The development model of Sakai is close to that of Moodle, if I do not
mistake: plugins.
The one of XWiki is considerably more flexible I believe, deployment can
be fully web-based and authorizations are fine grained. So you can give
admin rights to a space to "the current TA helping my course" so that "he
gets you running with some development that is local to your space".

Hi Adam,
This is great ! I've seen some tweets during the conference that
announced
the session.
I heard a lot about Sakai and it's great that there is now an
integration.
We'd love to know the type of integration you did. Is it authentication,
UI
level integration, content integration.
If you have a pointer to your slides of the presentation that would be
great.
You might also know the Curriki (http://www.curriki.org) is build on top
of
the XWiki Software, which is an education oriented
software which is
also
released under the LGPL licence.
It could be possible to piggyback on your integration to integrate
Curriki
with Sakai.
