Some good ideas, but I think having a simple table with columns for
various stages of the development would be better than inventing words
like 'Moodled'.

>From the discussion it looks as though we would have the following
columns:

1.  Outline
2.  Asciidoc
3.  Moodle
4.  In-Person
5.  Complete

A proposed course would not go in to this format -- in my 'vision' this
table would be at the top right or left of a the courses outline page.

Each column, except 'Complete' would be marked with a status:

1.  NA -- not applicable
2.  Planned
3.  Under Development
4.  Under Review
5.  Finished

The 'Complete' column would be simply 'blank' or marked with an 'X'

I will try to add a 'sample' of this idea to the wiki for the group to
review; though I may not get to doing this until the middle of this
week.
