Sakai 2.7 Announcement
rSmart is now supporting Sakai 2.7. In the next few months, MyCR will be upgraded from Sakai 2.6 to 2.7. You will want to read about some of the new tools that will be available. We are particularly excited about upgrades and fixes to the old tools. Look for our announcements for up-coming workshops on 2.7 upgrades.
