My Niece Loved it!
"My Niece recently just started school so I was concerned about the colors as her school requires uniform. Well needless to say I worried for nothing! Kids these days are all about mismatching & since black goes with just about anything she improvises & puts on a pink ribbon or something pink with her uniform to match with the shoes. She's 5 by the way & can't get enough of them. She asked me one day where do I buy her shoes from and when I told her a fabulous store called DSW she said and I quote "I love DSW they make the best shoes!" ahhh I trained her well!"

Alzheimer's Awareness Month
Statements By Members
2 p.m.
Hedy Fry Vancouver Centre, BC
Mr. Speaker, January is Alzheimer's Awareness Month. Five hundred thousand Canadians live with this progressive degenerative disease that destroys brain cells. The number of Canadians suffering from Alzheimer's is expected to double in the next 20 years.
Groundbreaking research is being done by organizations like Baycrest in Toronto in an attempt to understand the underlying causes of Alzheimer's and how to delay its onset.
It is important to recognize the early signs of Alzheimer's, including personality change, mood change, disorientation of time and place, and difficulty performing familiar tasks. Early identification of Alzheimer's is critical to delay its onset.
Alzheimer's puts enormous emotional stress on millions of Canadian families. It costs our health care system billions of dollars a year. If we could delay the onset for as little as two years we could save the system $219 billion over 30 years.
Investing in research and prevention would not only give us savings, but it would improve the quality of lives for many individuals and families in Canada.
Skin Cancer
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
James Bezan Selkirk—Interlake, MB
Mr. Speaker, this Saturday is World Cancer Day.
Fifty-five hundred Canadians are diagnosed with melanoma every year and 950 will die from it. An additional 74,000 cases of non-melanoma skin cancers are expected annually, of which 270 Canadians will die.
To escape the winter, many Canadians are heading south to sunny destinations. I urge them to protect their skin, their body's biggest organ. They should stay in the shade when outdoors, cover up, and use sunscreen.
Many Canadians will also crawl into tanning beds to get their base tans. I cannot stress enough how harmful this equipment is. The World Health Organization has moved tanning beds to the highest cancer risk category, carcinogenic to humans.
I recently tabled a private member's bill to tackle the health risks caused by tanning salons. Among other restrictions, my bill would prohibit anyone under the age of 18 years from using tanning beds. Studies have shown that using tanning beds at a young age increases the risk of skin cancer by over 75%.
I encourage all members to support my bill to restrict the use of tanning beds and increase public awareness about skin cancer prevention.
Search and Rescue
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Jonathan Tremblay Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, QC
Mr. Speaker, the closure of the search and rescue centre in Quebec City is unacceptable for the Quebec City area and for the people in my riding.
The centre opened 30 years ago for two main reasons: first, to put in place staff who know the local region, which is crucial in deploying appropriate resources and guiding them effectively on the ground, and second, to provide efficient service in French.
As mentioned by a Coast Guard officer, hostile conditions make it very difficult for shipwrecked individuals to clearly express the details of the dangers they face.
Damaged equipment, shouting and violent winds require staff to be fully fluent in French.
The St. Lawrence is considered to be one of the most complex waterways in the world. Losing this expertise is unthinkable.
All Quebeckers from eastern Quebec to Trois-Rivières are worried. This was a budgetary decision that will put many lives in danger on both shores of the St. Lawrence.
Law Enforcement Officers
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Blaine Calkins Wetaskiwin, AB
Mr. Speaker, I rise today in the House to remind Canadians of the courageous men and women who serve as law enforcement officers across our great country. This was brought to mind in my riding of Wetaskiwin on December 4, 2011, when two members of the RCMP emergency response team were wounded after exchanging gunfire in a standoff at a remote rural house near Breton, Alberta. This is just another example of the risks that law enforcement officers face on the front lines every day.
Peace officers of all jurisdictions from across the country provide an invaluable service to all Canadians. These officers have dedicated their lives to uphold the law and protect those who are threatened by criminals, and every day their families wait anxiously for the safe return of their loved ones once work is done.
Our government is committed to ensuring criminals are held fully accountable for their actions and that the safety and security of law-abiding citizens and victims come first in Canada's justice system, but it is our law enforcement officers who are on the front line, standing courageously between law-abiding citizens and those who would pose a danger. It takes a special kind of person to do that.
I know all members in the House today will join me in thanking these brave officers who were wounded, Corporal Peter King and Staff Sergeant Patrick McIsaac, and wish them a speedy and full recovery.
Don Blenkarn
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Stella Ambler Mississauga South, ON
Mr. Speaker, with profound sadness, I learned this morning of the passing of Don Blenkarn, who served for 16 years as the Conservative member of Parliament in Mississauga from 1972 to 1974 and 1979 to 1993.
Don was a friend and mentor to me in my political efforts and I have cherished his advice on how to be a good MP for the people of Mississauga South. He advised me to work hard, knock on lots of doors and never forget the people we serve. Not known for his subtlety, Don was known for his laugh, his caring big heart, sense of fun, and his somewhat controversial statements.
My thoughts and prayers are with Don's wife, Marguerite, and his family. Don's life was filled with the love of a devoted family, the camaraderie of many friends, and the gratitude of the thousands of people he served.
Donald Alex Blenkarn, Q.C., was a true community leader, a true parliamentarian and a true friend. May he rest in peace.
The ROMEOs
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Irene Mathyssen London—Fanshawe, ON
Mr. Speaker, I want to share with you a wonderful example of community in my riding. There is a group of retired veterans who call themselves the ROMEOs, retired old men eating out. They meet every Wednesday morning at the Scotian Isle and are graciously hosted by Pat, John and Joseph McDonald.
The ROMEOs served together in the Canadian Forces in the 1950s. This is how they keep in touch, how they look out for one another, and keep up the friendships they established while serving Canada. I meet with the ROMEOs whenever possible. The conversation is always enlightening and the men, as everyone may have expected, are profoundly charming. I get to hear their stories, their struggles and their triumphs. I come away from these breakfasts with a sense of how important community is to our veterans and our seniors. It is community that enriches our lives and gives us security when we need it most.
Thanks to the ROMEOs and thanks to the Scotian Isle.
Quebec Winter Carnival
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Jacques Gourde Lotbinière—Chutes-de-la-Chaudière, QC
Mr. Speaker, I would like you to come and meet one of the greatest ambassadors for Quebeckers' joie de vivre. He is the symbol of a festival he has represented since 1955. Many members will have guessed that I am speaking about the Quebec winter carnival's Bonhomme Carnaval.
I invite my colleagues to attend the 58th Quebec winter carnival. Activities are already under way, and you will not want to miss the night parades on February 4 and 11, for which our oldest Quebec carnival is renowned.
This spectacular event includes floats, dance troops and bands, among other things.
Young and old festival goers can choose from no fewer than 250 activities and events.
I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the president and his entire team.
I invite everyone to enjoy this outdoor festival by participating in some of the activities that will be held until February 12.
Jean Bosco Centre in Maniwaki
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Mathieu Ravignat Pontiac, QC
Mr. Speaker, clearly the Conservatives do not care about the ridings that did not vote for them. This heartless government abandoned a very important project in the Pontiac riding. The Jean Bosco centre in Maniwaki, a social and occupational integration centre for people with disabilities, was promised assistance prior to the 2011 election, only to be punished when the riding did not vote for the right party. The centre has been rebuffed by this arrogant government.
The Jean Bosco centre meets all the criteria. The community raised over a million dollars and invested a great deal of time in the project. Since five projects have been selected—none of which are in Quebec and three of which are in Conservative ridings—and there are still program funds remaining, I am asking the Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development, who has been completely ignoring our letters and questions, to rise above partisanship and agree to this request. We are talking about people with disabilities and a centre that serves more than 18 municipalities in the Vallée-de-la-Gatineau.
Frankly, the minister and this government should be ashamed of themselves.
Statements By Members
2:10 p.m.
Costas Menegakis Richmond Hill, ON
Mr. Speaker, today our government announced expanded sanctions against Iran in an effort to further apply pressure to a regime that both undermines regional and global security and regularly turns a blind eye to its international human rights obligations.
We are deeply concerned by reports of an increase in arrests and death sentences in Iran, including that of Iranian citizen Saeed Malekpour, who now faces imminent execution on the sham charges of spreading corruption. Sadly, Saeed's case is but one example of the regime's utter disregard for human rights and its failure to meet internationally recognized norms of due process and transparency.
Canada will hold Iran accountable for Mr. Malekpour's treatment. We have been actively speaking out and raising his case with the Iranian authorities.
We call on Iran to reverse its current course, meet its international human rights obligations and release prisoners such as Saeed Malekpour and others who have failed to receive fair and transparent legal treatment.
Children's Breakfast Club
Statements By Members
January 31st, 2012 / 2:10 p.m.
Kirsty Duncan Etobicoke North, ON
Mr. Speaker, tomorrow is the beginning of Black History Month, recognizing the innumerable achievements and contributions of black Canadians who have helped build our country.
To mark this occasion, some 50 awesome children from the Children's Breakfast Club, which serves 4,000 meals a week in Toronto, are visiting Parliament Hill. The club was formed to ensure that children leave for school feeling good about themselves and enable them to be successful at school.
The group is accompanied by prominent members from the community who have made valuable contributions to Toronto, Ontario and Canada, including our former colleague, the Hon. Jean Augustine, Ontario's Fairness Commissioner, and Richard Gosling, the president and founder of the Children's Breakfast Club.
I ask my colleagues to join us for a reception with these terrific children, our future, at the Government Conference Centre, at 3:15 p.m., and celebrate our culture, heroes and history.
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Shelly Glover Saint Boniface, MB
Mr. Speaker, recently there have been reports that a young woman in Afghanistan was murdered by her own family simply for giving birth to a baby girl.
All too often, the women in Afghanistan pay a severe price simply for being women. Their most basic rights are overlooked, neglected and abused.
That is why Canada supports a range of projects in Afghanistan. We want to strengthen the rights of women and girls, make it easier for them to access education and health care, encourage their political involvement and enhance the economic opportunities available to them.
On behalf of all Canadians, this government is maintaining our commitment to make a difference in the lives of women and girls in Afghanistan.
The Conservative Government
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Alexandre Boulerice Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie, QC
Mr. Speaker, Parliament just resumed yesterday and already the Conservatives' bad political choices have emerged: closure motions, massive cuts to public services, a complete lack of transparency and threats to seniors who now fear losing their entire life savings.
For six years now, the Conservatives have been promising that they will change how things are done in Ottawa, but instead Canadians are treated to ministers who waste taxpayers' money as though it were Monopoly money and ministers who sell out to oil lobbyists and call anyone who dares to speak out a radical.
Canadians deserve better. They want a government that listens, a government that stops rewarding large corporations that do not create jobs here in Canada. They want a government that takes action on climate change, a government that protects pension plans and works with the provinces to improve health care.
Canadians and Quebeckers have put their trust in the NDP to force the Conservatives to be accountable. The economic situation remains fragile. It is high time this government pulled its head out of the sand and protected people who lose their job.
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Wai Young Vancouver South, BC
Mr. Speaker, while the member for Burnaby—New Westminster is criticizing government, I must remind the House that even he, the NDP's temporary finance critic, acknowledged pressures on the viability of OAS. Events around the world and our aging population make it clear that governments need to make responsible decisions to ensure social programs remain sustainable.
Our government is reviewing measures to protect Canadian pensions in the long term. We will implement any changes fairly, allowing lots of time for notice and time to adjust.
We have made it clear to Canadians that people currently receiving OAS will not lose one penny. In fact, the National Post gets it with its front page headline today, "Tories on the right side of pension reform".
The real trouble lies with the NDP and the Liberal plans for reckless spending and higher taxes. Their plans will kill jobs and threaten Canadians' future retirement pensions.
Aboriginal Affairs
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Nycole Turmel Leader of the Opposition
Mr. Speaker, I just met with National Chief Shawn Atleo as a follow-up to the crown-first nations gathering held exactly one week ago.
Could the Prime Minister inform the House of the specific steps his government will take to honour commitments made to first nations last week? Would he provide us a timeline for implementation of those commitments? Also, will there be action in the upcoming budget for first nations?
Aboriginal Affairs
Oral Questions
2:15 p.m.
Calgary Southwest
Stephen Harper Prime Minister
Mr. Speaker, first, I thought the crown-first nations gathering, which was historic, was a very successful gathering. I certainly congratulate the national chief for his vision which brought that gathering about.
At the same time, coming out of that gathering was a statement put out by the government and by the Assembly of First Nations on an action plan regarding economic development, education and a number of other matters. I would draw the attention of the leader of the NDP to that action plan.
In the meantime, in all budgets, we have done things for aboriginal peoples. This time I would hope the NDP would actually vote for them instead of against them.

Wales winger Morgan Stoddart marked his first game back from injury with a try in a 24-13 win for Scarlets against Dragons.
Wales winger Morgan Stoddart marked his first game back from injury with a try in a 24-13 win for Scarlets against Dragons.
Stoddart had been out of the game for 15 months following the broken leg he suffered against England in the summer of 2011. But after being introduced to the fray at the start of the second half he only had to wait half an hour before celebrating a try on his return.
Following a penalty apiece from Steffan Jones and Aled Thomas, Scarlets scored the opening try of the night in controversial fashion.
A Thomas penalty kick from the right hand side appeared to go through the posts but, to the bemusement of the Dragons players, referee Nigel Owens ruled that the kick had narrowly missed the far upright and awarded a try instead once Gareth Maule – alert to the fact the ball was still 'live' – touched the loose ball down in the left hand corner.
Thomas converted and added two further penalties to hand the home side a 16-3 half-time lead.
After a drab, scoreless third quarter, played out in persistent rain, Dragons threatened a mini fightback.
Dan Evans' smart grubber kick on the left hand touchline appeared to be covered by a back-tracking Scott Williams, but the ball escaped from his grasp and Adam Hughes followed up smartly.
His score and the subsequent conversion closed the gap to just three points.
Jonathan Evans's sin-binning on 65 minutes stopped the Dragons' momentum and resulted in three more penalty points for the Scarlets from the boot of replacement Rhys Priestland.
After being brought down just short of the line a minute earlier, winger Stoddart made no mistake in finishing off another attack for what was the most popular score of the evening.
The scorers:
For Scarlets:
Tries: Maule, Stoddart
Con: Thomas
Pens: Priestland, Thomas 3
For Dragons:
Try: Hughes
Con: Prydie
Pens: S Jones, Prydie
Scarlets: 15 Liam Williams, 14 George North, 13 Gareth Maule, 12 Scott Williams, 11 Andy Fenby, 10 Aled Thomas, 9 Tavis Knoyle, 8 Rob McCusker (capt), 7 Josh Turnbull, 6 Aaron Shingler, 5 Johan Snyman, 4 Sione Timani, 3 Samson Lee, 2 Matthew Rees, 1 Phil John.
Replacements: 16 Ken Owens, 17 Shaun Hopkins, 18 Deacon Manu, 19 Richard Kelly, 20 Kieran Murphy, 21 Gareth Davies, 22 Rhys Priestland, 23 Morgan Stoddart.

The Mountains to Sea Trail is one of the many remarkable features near our Western NC bed and breakfast.
The Mountains to Sea Trail crosses the entire state of North Carolina, covering approximately 1,000 miles. Currently it is an amalgamation of trails, roads, and bike paths; eventually there will be a continuous footpath from the coast of North Carolina to Clingman's Dome in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Sections 7 and 8 of the MST pass close to our bed and breakfast inn Asheville. It visits the North Carolina Arboretum and crosses the French Broad River. It runs parallel to the Blue Ridge Parkway and comes close to the Folk Art Center. It then climbs 3,500 feet from Asheville to Craggy Gardens, where the rhododendrons thrive, and on to Balsam Gap.
There are several to the MST trailheads near our North Carolina bed and breakfast. Take a short walk, or bring plenty of snacks and water and spend the day on the MST.

Spaniard Hernando de Soto was among the early European explorers to visit the territory in the mid-16th century, but it was a Frenchman, Henri de Tonti, who in 1686 founded the first permanent white settlement—the Arkansas Post. In 1803 the area was acquired by the U.S. as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Part of the Territory of Missouri from 1812, the area became a separate entity in 1819 after the first large wave of settlers arrived. The next several decades were marked by the development of the cotton industry and the spread of the Southern plantation system west into Arkansas. Arkansas joined the Confederacy in 1861, but from 1863 the northern part of the state was occupied by Union troops.
Food products are the state's largest employing sector, with lumber and wood products a close second. Arkansas is also a leader in the production of cotton, rice, and soybeans. It also has the country's only active diamond mine; located near Murfreesboro, it is operated as a tourist attraction.
Hot Springs National Park and Buffalo National River in the Ozarks are major state attractions. Blanchard Springs Caverns, the Historic Arkansas Museum at Little Rock, the William J. Clinton Birthplace in Hope, and the Arkansas Folk Center in Mountain View are also of interest. New in 2011 is the Crystal Bridges Museum for American Art, designed by Moshe Safdie, which houses the collection of Walmart heiress Alice Walton.
In 2008, Arkansas joined the unfortunate list of states that have suffered school shootings: four men were charged with capital murder and other felonies for the fatal shootings of two students and wounding of a third near a University of Central Arkansas dormitory.
Flash floods swept through Albert Pike Recreation Area, killing 19 in 2010. One year later, the Mississippi River flooded more than 1 million acres and 63 counties were declared disaster areas.See more on Arkansas:

By JASON BAILEYSun Advocate/Emery County Progress
Recent reports indicate that Apple is now the #2 leading music reseller in the United States. That's no surprise, as Apple's iPod is the best selling portable digital music player in the nation - no doubt a result of Apple's highly successful marketing efforts.
At the same time, however, that same marketing campaign has created some strong myths that may be a little misleading for many iPod consumers.
Myth 1: Like it or not, you must user iTunes to manage your iPod via your PC. False.
While it is largely true that you must use the iTunes software to buy music from the iTunes store if you intend to store it on your iPod, you don't have to use it to transfer your own music files to and from your iPod. WinAmp (a free Windows media player) is fully capable of managing your iPod. So is Amarok on Linux. And those are just a few of the alternatives.
Myth 2: You have to use iTunes to rip (extract) music from your audio CDs if you intend to copy (sync) them to your iPod. False.
Your iPod is capable of reading music audio formats other than Apple's own. For example, an iPod is capable of reading the highly popular MP3 format. So, many people use WinAmp (or other compatible application) to rip, or extract the songs from their CD, save them as MP3 files, and then sync those files to their iPod.
Myth 3: The iPod won't work until you register your iPod with Apple via the iTunes software. False.
As long as you don't want to buy songs electronically for your iPod from the iTunes store, you don't have to register the iPod with iTunes. You can transfer your own music (i.e. as MP3 files) to your iPod with WinAmp or any other iPod-capable software without the need for the iTunes software.
Myth 4: Will the iTunes store make audio CDs a thing of the past? Certainly no one can predict the future, but it is highly unlikely iTunes will make CDs obsolete.
Why? Mainly for two reasons. First, CD players are far more widespread at this point than portable digital audio players like the iPod, especially if you count computers, virtually all of which can read CDs. CDs are universal (vendor independent), and they work in more devices (regardless of manufacturer) than Apple's iPod (for example, car stereos, home entertainment systems, DVD players, computers, etc). Many buy the CD and play it in their car or house, and then make MP3 files from the same CD, which they copy (sync) onto their iPod.
Secondly, the Apple iTunes store is largely designed to work only with Apple's software and devices. Competing devices like Microsoft's Zune player, for example, don't always fare well with the iTunes store.
Consumers who like the iTunes software certainly have nothing to worry about.
But those that don't like iTunes should know that they aren't bound to it, and have many options to choose from, especially on Windows and Linux.

We had a meeting last week with Martin, Dongsheng and I. We came up to this solution:
- moodle_ is replace by core_
- user/course/... are never mentionned
- mod/plugin use the frankenstyle
- the second word is always a verb (or plugin name)
- moodle_enrol_manual_enrol_users => enrol_manual_create / moodle_enrol_manual_unenrol_users => enrol_manual_delete
I think that the API Documentation will just be messy with a solution like that (see screen capture), without keeping the user/course/... We probably will have to hard code the API documentation to be sorted in a human way.
The naming convention draft document (http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Web_services_Roadmap) has been updated with the latest meeting solution (matching the code sent to integration)
Summary for the integration review:
Do you agree with:
1- the missing user/course/...
2- moodle_enrol_manual_enrol_users => enrol_manual_create (e.g. enrol_PLUGINNAME_create/delete/update)
3- keeping the previous web service functions, just marking the description as DEPRECATED
4- not changing the externallib.php files and keeping writing them the way they are written (class name specially).
I guess you will likely agree with other non mentioned changes
There seems to be something wrong here, we should not be deprecating stuff in the middle of stable branches, right?
Here are the solutions I can see:
a) not renaming/changing anything, but writing the futur functions with the new naming convention
b) renaming current one
c) deprecating current function in the description and adding similar functions respecting the new naming convention
As b) would break compatibility with existing clients, I guess Petr is suggesting a).
I mean once branch gets stable you should not remove, deprecate or add any WS stuff. All the changes should be done in master only especially now that we have the short release cycles. You have only one attempt to do it right when dealing with public APIs, ideally all the public api stuff should be changed early in dev cycle so that people have enough time to test it in master and complain if something does not work as expected or is broken - in master any new stuff can be improved/changed/fixed/reverted...
Ah ok I misunderstood you. I agree with you. I'm adding Dongsheng and Martin as watcher. It was decided to backport during the last meeting.
I guess we'll probably go for master only, and backport to 2.1/2.0 only if really necessary. I'm removing the git urls about 2.1/2.0.
The main moodle.git repository has just been updated with latest weekly modifications. You may wish to rebase your PULL branches to simplify history and avoid any possible merge conflicts. This would also make integrator's life easier next week.

+ 'core_send_instantmessages' => array(
+ 'core_create_notes' => array(
This is still not frankenstyle, when using core, these would be most probably:
- core_message_sendinstant
- core_notes_create
see function get_core_subsystems()
my -1
I'm ok with these changes, and the generated doc will look better I talk about that with Martin and Dongsheng, and make the changes.
Could I get back this issue from integration please, I'd like to send it to peer review to dongsheng.
Dongsheng can you peer review the changes?
Note: I'm not 100% sure about core_user_getbycourseid / core_user_getprofilebycourse function name.
This is going around in circles! Changing the verb position is a huge change from even last week.
The problem with changing WS external function names to core_subsystem_verbnoun is that they don't match the method names in externallib.php at all.
eg in the current patch in git I see:
WS function 'core_group_create' ----> class 'moodle_group_external', method 'create_groups'
WS function 'core_group_getmembers' ----> class 'moodle_group_external', method 'get_members'
This is just too confusing and messy. We can't just leave off the noun sometimes because it happens to match the component name. Many of them deal in multiple nouns (eg forums have forums, discussions, ratings etc)
It was already decided to make the method names start with a verb, and because these are worse to change, I would keep those and make the WS names match the method.
This is in fact exactly what we had in 2.0 already: moodle_group_create_groups()
There is no good reason to change that, except possibly to core_group_create_groups() if "moodle" isn't good.
So my +1 for
- fullcomponent = frankenstyle like core_xxxx or mod_xxxx
- classname = fullcomponent_external
- methodname = verb_noun(s)
- WS function names = fullcomponent_methodname
Please confirm if I understand well:
'moodle_group_create_groups' => array(
'classname' => 'core_group_external', //previously moodle_group_external
'methodname' => 'create_groups', //a) always start with a verb. b) must match the end of the web service function name.
'classpath' => 'group/externallib.php',
'description' => 'DEPRECATED: use core_group_create_groups()',
'type' => 'write',
'capabilities'=> 'moodle/course:managegroups',
'core_group_create_groups' => array(
'classname' => 'core_group_external',
'methodname' => 'create_groups',
'classpath' => 'group/externallib.php',
'description' => 'Creates new groups.',
'type' => 'write',
'capabilities'=> 'moodle/course:managegroups',
1) Create new core_group_external class
2) All moodle_group_external class function codes will be moved to their matching core_group_external class functions. All moodle_group_external class function codes will be just a call to their matching core_group_external class functions.
Yep, that looks OK to me and will retain backward compatibility.
Note that existing non-core classes like moodle_enrol_manual_external would also have to be renamed to enrol_manual_external.
If anyone can see any problems with this you have a day to complain!
Hi all
I am looking at core_group_create_group and core_message_send_instantmessage. core_group and core_message are frankenstyle component names.
I don't see why important to use frankenstyle in core web service names? Web service client could be java, C++ or any other languages, they cannot reuse moodle code base, what is the real benefits of frankenstyle in this case except dev documentation?
When web service client developer want to send message using moodle web service, all they want to know is there is a web service called send_instantmessage, they don't care if it's moodle core code or not, so I think send_instantmessage is a better name than core_message_send_instantmessage, it's clean and straight forward. Although I agree to use frankenstyle for module and plugin web service names, this could avoid the potential name conflicts.
I'd agree if we had total control of the system, but what we need here is a single, consistent, recommended naming guide that is guaranteed never to cause conflicts, even if different people design different parts of it at the same time. Otherwise new modules can be installed at any time and could break web services.
Apu, I send it to you for peer review.
The new naming convention can be see 2 posts above in Martin comment.
The best way for reviewing this is to cherry pick and read first the db/services.php and /enrol/manual/db/services.php. Then read all externallib.php (except the one in lib). You can come to see me I'll explain it quickly.
Reviewing is about checking:
a) new web service names match the new naming convention
b) new core class names are correct
c) new externallib.php functions have correct name
d) if externallib.php functions have a new name, check validate_parameters( xxxx_params(), ...) call.
d) the deprecated class functions are now calling the new functions
Some points that I hesitated:
- enrol_manual_create: this was decided in the last meeting (all enrol plugin are enrol_pluginname_create)
- moodle_user_get_course_participants_by_id => core_user_get_course_user_profiles (made it clearer, better description)
- didn't modify the mobile service for backward compatibility and I didn't add new functions to avoid redundancy.
- moodle_enrol_get_enrolled_users is deprecated. There is an alternative function to use but it does not behave the same way, so I just marked it as deprecated.
I retested most of the moodle_xxxx web service functions (20 of them), they were still all working fine.
Hi Jerome, i'm in the midst of looking at this..but noting quickly admin/webservice/documentation.php needs to be updated to show the new calls as well.
Good catch. The documentation is generated automatically, and we should not display the deprecated ones. The "mapping/deprecated/renamed" attribut that you suggested to me will also fix this issue I think.
Hi Jerome, just reviewing this and heres some feedback (feel free to make separate issue if its not from this issue ):
- deprecation in ws: while we are using 'DEPRECATED' in the moodle_* services description we are signifying that we will remove it in future. Will we? If we do, it might be better to consider using versioning within the namespace url of the published web services. ie: http://sitename.com/.../webservicename/yyyy/mm/dd ?
- renaming : yea it might be nice to have a ws that shows the history/mapping of the api calls according to ws version. maybe the deprecated classes should use this to perform the mapped calls too?
- just reiterating that admin/webservice/documentation.php needs to be updated to show the new calls as well.
- the description in deprecated calls mentions an alternate function, possible to provide url to function or deprecatedby field?
- some of the *_returns() document @return external_description but return null. append 'or null' ?
- missing deprecated comment in code above moodle_* classes in a few externallib.php's ( message , webservice)
- enrol/externalib.php
- line 151 : needs clean up of debug statement varlog()
- about 'moodle_enrol_get_enrolled_users' : see deprecation related comment above.
I fixed all mentioned points except:
1) issue: mobile service (and third parties) currently use deprecated functions.
solution: adding a renaming attribut to the service.php functions. This requires a bit more detailled specs. Web service servers should detect a function marked as deprecated/renamed. If the user is allowed to use the new matching function, then the web service server allows the access. Of course this could only be used for exact copy of the deprecated function.
2) issue: deprecated function are displayed into the API documentation
solution: adding a deprecated attribut to the service.php functions.
3) versioning.
I'll create an issue for 1) and 2).
PS: I'm not sure about versioning. Last time we talk about it, it was decided that we will not have web service versioning.

Hi guys,
I'm stopping the review presently - I've been looking over these changes and pondering them for the past while and have noted the following three things:
- All deprecated functions really need to be marked as deprecated in their PHP doc, should include the version, and the new equivalent as well. e.g. _@deprecated since Moodle 2.2 please use core_blah::do_something instead. (This should be done for all functions as well as classes). I also think that the service description in services.php should include the version the function was deprecated.
- enrol_manual_external::create I think should be renamed to something more descriptive such as enrol or enrol_users. I suspect that in the future we will want a create function for creating manual enrolment instances (which is what I thought this was doing before seeing the name change and reading the function to find out it was in fact enrolling users.
- I'm not sure about the location of the method core_enrol_external::get_users_courses. At first I thought it's straight out in the wrong place and should be a method of core_user_external however I'm not 100% sure.
Looking at core_user_external I see it has a method that gets all of the users enrolled in a course. core_enrol_external::get_users_courses does sort of the reverse getting all of the courses a user is enrolled in. I think one of these methods is in the wrong place however I'm not sure whether core_enrol_external::get_users_courses should become core_user_external::get_users_courses, or whether core_user_external::get_users_by_courseid should become core_enrol_external::get_enrolled_users (noting that it does use enrolment API)
I would say that #1 would be great to have done but could (if no one has time now) be done in a separate issue after integration although I would only be happy if it were guaranteed to be done and not put into the backlog.
#2 I think need to be done before this is integrated OR a very good argument put up as to why should stay named as it is.
#3 I don't know about - I think we should see what people think about this. Personally the more I look at it the more I think core_user_external::get_users_by_courseid should be moved to core_enrol_external.
Please please please lets get this decided so that it can go in well before 2.2 enters QA testing phase!
I have left this in integration presently so that we can get people's views.
#1 as you requested, I can guarantee you I'll change it if it is integrated. But as I'll probably have to do more changes after #2 and #3 are decided, I'll make the changes before integration. +1
#2 From a client developer point of view, enrol_manual_enrol_users it's clearer to me. To summarise I would say we probably didn't think about the confusion with creating enrolment instance. +1 to go back to enrol_manual_enrol_users
#3 They could be both course external functions, they could be also user, and they could be enrol too I think they are most likely enrol. We could move get_users_by_courseid() into enrol external lib - +1 for that if we move one of these functions. PS: the deprecated functions will stay in their original files whatever we move or don't move the new function.
+1 to move to enrol external any method using the enrolments API and somehow, following the naming convention introduce the "enrolled" word instead of so many user/course/users/courses. (that said by one non native speaker, of course)
It makes to rename core_course_get_users_by_courseid() into core_enrol_get_enrolled_users() as the deprecated (but not renamed) function moodle_enrol_get_enrolled_users() advocate to use core_course_get_users_by_courseid() now. I guess we all agree on #3.
Martin can you give your agreement on #2?
Sam, you can send it back to development, I'll push the changes to integration tomorrow
+1 to #2. I think I said elsewhere that all the function names should have verb_noun
The main moodle.git repository has just been updated with latest weekly modifications. You may wish to rebase your PULL branches to simplify history and avoid any possible merge conflicts. This would also make integrator's life easier next week.
TIA and ciao
Jerome, can you please update http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Web_services_Roadmap to make it reflect the final version? Cheers!
Roadmap updated, I'll create a issue for the Web service API Roadmap, with each functions as subtask.
all the ws functions have been tested with Jerome's unit test scripts. (he's probably got an issue where its from i can't find it)
Done, your delicious hacks have been sent upstream, many thanks!
Closing as fixed, ciao

A most welcoming garage, excellent facilities. got them to do the work for me on a SUNDAY, I paid what they quoted and will definitely be using them again, would recommend to any and everybody who needs work done, prices here would be hard to beat anywhere.
Very helpful!!!
Great job done, very trustworthy thankyou
Rung me a few times to let me know what needs doing. Great help
Very professional and polite service
Very professional and friendly service; good prices; I got a text when the vehicle was ready - very handy. Thorough service and no nasty surprises. Appointment booked quickly, would recommend!
Excellent service and work completed. Kept me up to date on work being done and car was ready as agreed. Would recommend and definitely use again. Many thanks.
easy service
Disappointed with this garage. Took 4 hours to complete interim service and nowhere to wait so was walking around in the cold. Also in the quote they told me a lot would be checked however on the sheet they have given me they have only checked battery level,changed oil and checked tyres. Won't be going back if that's what I'm paying £70 for.
Very quick response and swiftly fixed the problem.
Very quick response. Got the car in as soon as possible. Clear with pricing etc. and very helpful over the phone. Took the car in and job was done quicker than expected. Very efficient and no messing about. I will be using them again in the future. Thank you
The work was reasonably priced and Dave only did the work that was necessary after fully discussing with me first. I will be recommending this garage to friends.
Friendly and helpful. Dave found and fixed the problem the same morning. I am very happy.
On time, polite, and job well done.
Excellent service, price was as quoted... Would definitely recommend!
Although the original appointment time was missed, the guys completed the job very well. Great price and with them being mobile you have the convenience of not travelling and waiting in a garage reception. I even changed location on the day and they accommodated it with no fuss. Professional, polite and friendly. Recommended.
Booked for 9am, still had not showed up at 9:55am so cancelled as had to go to work. Extra star given as the comms on the job were really good, just a shame the mechanic didn't show up.
Highly Recomended
fab service, quick and efficient. had a quote in excess of £380 from a local garage, typed the problem in here and Brunel jumped in! the guys at Brunel did a great job for £140! will definitely be using them again.
Very happy with this garage. They changed the four spring coils in about 2 hours, they did the job very quick. Friendly and highly reccommended.
Great customer service. It was quick and a comprehensive service was carried out. Would recommend.
Great service and short wait. Checked tracking for free and fixed while I waited. Definitely recommend and will be going back again
Brunel tyres did a quick and professional job of replacing the clutch and flywheel. I was given plenty of info and shown the old parts which I appreciated. I was really surprised that they did this kind of work as I knew them mainly for tyres but the workmanship has been top class and the icing on top is that their quote was miles better than all the others, and that's with using top quality parts too. I did ask and check what parts they would use. I would highly recommend them for any car repairs and maintenance.
