AUC 0.7.3 is available. The most significant change is the addition of dropbox support in the file manager. This allows instructors to create a turn-in bin for student assignments. In addition, libxml2 is no longer required for AUC (it's packaged internally). Finally, in addition to numerous bug fixes and translation updates, AUC should compile and install more easily on modern redhat 7.x and glibc 2 systems. Check out the Download Page for info.

Authenticated User Community for Education is an intranet system designed for use in a K-12 setting but is also useful in many other settings. It offers the ability for users to have a uniform web-based interface to discussion forums, e-mail (similar to hotmail, etc.), file management, and a searchable user database. Also, "Interactive Classrooms" provide a means for students and teachers to have a web-based extension to their in-class interaction. The system runs from a C-based monolithic CGI script. MySQL is used for database storage. Also, the web-based mail client supports MIME parts/attachments, IMAP, mbox, and multiple mail folders.
