Nono, that's my bad.  I was tired last night when I was trying to find 
them and figured, from what I saw linked, that only the postgres course 
had been imported into moodle, because that was the only one where there 
was a link on http://www.linuxchix.org/courses.html

If people can already read the courses off moodle (and that seems to be 
the case!  Great job, and I wish I hadn't forgotten it was done!) it 
seems like we should just get those linked up so they can be found by 
visitors to linuxchix.org.

So... in that case, we just need someone to edit 
http://www.linuxchix.org/courses.html so it links appropriately to 
http://courses.linuxchix.org/ (can link each course individually, or 
provide a blurb of explanation and direct everyone to 
courses.linuxchix.org).  Should be pretty easy, assuming I'm right and 
everyone can *read* the courses, and the SSO issues just make it hard to 
*participate* in them.

And I hear Sulamita just volunteered for late night updates and server 
upgrades... ;)  But seriously, can someone refresh my memory as to what 
we need the database upgrade for, and what it will affect, so we can get 
that done now?  I may be able to look at it this weekend, if you just 
need someone with root access to the server to say "sure, here's a 3hr 
block of my time, let's do this."
