[Guy Albertelli II]

Hi All,

here is the 1.1.0 email, let me know if there is anything you'd like
changed.

Otherwise I'll be sending it out around 5 ish.

New Version 1.1.0 Released


Notable Changes:
- start of localization (currently has partial interfaces for
  German, Japanese, Portugese, Russian, Turkish) if you'd like
  to do the translations for another language let us know
- complete rewrite of lonc
- scantron mode works
- more STAT modes (submission time analysis,
                    optionresponse problem analysis)
- threaded discussion
- improved support for versioning of resources





To install this update:

1) You will need to be running Redhat 7.X (preferably 7.3)
   for this release to work



2) if you haven't already download and install the 3.9 systemperl rpm

If you are running RedHat 7.X get
http://install.loncapa.org/resources/LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.9-rh7.i386.rpm

rpm --install --force --nodeps LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.9-rh7.i386.rpm



Verify it is installed by doing:

$ rpm -q LON-CAPA-systemperl

RedHat 7.X will show
LON-CAPA-systemperl-3.9-rh7



3) Download the new LON-CAPA tarball from
wget http://install.lon-capa.org/versions/loncapa-1.1.0.tar.gz
