This will effect any server/instance that is running 3.6.

This will effect any server/instance that is running 3.6. Right now, the following are running 3.6. :

Plato:

  • uwmad.courses.wisc.edu
  • training.courses.wisc.edu
  • mepp.courses.wisc.edu

Socrates:

  • utility.courses.wisc.edu
  • uwsystem.courses.wisc.edu

All of the rest of our servers/instances will be upgraded by August 24, 2001 except for wi.courses.wisc.edu on Plato, which will get upgraded some time in Sept.

With the upgrade to WebCT 3.6, availability dates for Quizzes/Surveys can be displayed incorrectly in the Designer Options view for Quiz and Survey Management. Any existing or new quiz/survey is listed with an availability date of January xx, 2001. When you access Quizzes/Surveys from the View mode or from Quiz Settings as a Designer, or as a Student, the availability dates are displayed correctly.

WebCT is aware of this problem and it is being fixed in a maintenance release.
