external database table. In addition, Moodle now sports a cool
new admin GUI for configuring all of this, so it should be pretty
easy to configure external authentication.
- Thanks to contributor Petri Asikainen for his work on the GUI.<BR><BR>

+<DT> Contributed code
+<DD> Standalone user contributed code is now distributed under the /contrib directory. This directory
+ could get quite large, and the quality/security of it has usually not been checked by me,
+ and so this code is not included in the standard releases and nightlies. However, people
+ who are interested in it can access it via CVS (or see <A HREF="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/moodle/moodle/contrib/">CVS web view</A>). As it becomes polished or demand grows then I'll
+ integrate features in the main distribution.<BR><BR>
+ The first contributor is Holger Schadeck, who has written some interesting code
+ to help with translating all the Moodle help files. Check it out!
