[p2pu-dev] [p2pu-community] Re: Hack this Poem: Sign Up Form

[Stian Håklev]

I am curious about the priority of e-mail integration, it's something we
talked about even with the old system, and which was supposed to be one of
the things that would be much easier to do with the new system. If you look
at this bug, it's been pushed from release 0.3 to 1.5, and I don't know if
it might continue to be pushed. Of course a lot of the stuff being worked on
is important, but I think this can really make a huge difference to how
courses are run, how students engage with courses etc.
