Fellow Moodlers have been waiting for the roll out of Moodle 2.0 and it seems that February 2010 will see the launch of 2.0 in beta format with final testing in the spring ahead of a summer full release. Hans de Zwart has a superb blog here writing about some of the new features of Moodle 2.0 And the latest news on the Moodle 2.0 roadmap is available here. The deeper integration of Moodle 2.0 with existing open-source web 2.0 technologies and applications is really exciting and the summer of 2010 might well be the opportunity to develop economics and business VLE’s built around the Moodle approach that will blow commercial proprietory systems out of the water!
