Moodle Video PlayList Block for Edublogstv/TeacherTube

I’ve sent a version of the following email to Jodie at TeacherTube and James Farmer at Edublogs.tv:
Howdy! I notice that [VIDEO-HOSTING SERVICE] is hosting tons of great content these days.
I’d like to embed [VIDEO-HOSTING SERVICE] videos in our course management system, Moodle. As you probably know, Moodle is gaining wide use and acceptance in K-16 internationally.
Right now, there is a Moodle block—which adds functionality to moodle—that enables easy creation of video playlists of YouTube videos. You can see it working online in the right hand column and more information appears here:
http://moodle.org/mod/data/view.php?d=13&rid=919&filter=1Is there any chance your programmers could customize the YouTube Video Playlist block for [VIDEO-HOSTING SERVICE]?
If you’re a Moodle supporter, please encourage Jodie at TeacherTube and James at Edublogs.tv, not to mention the folks at SchoolTube, to support Video Playlist Moodle Block development!
BTW, I also wrote Paul Holden, the author of the Video Playlist Moodle block…
Paul:
Excellent work on the YouTube block for Moodle. Is there any chance you’d consider adjusting it for Edublogs.tv?
This is what the link to a video looks like…

My apologies if this email is unwanted. And regardless, kudos on your Video Playlist Moodle block.
Update 03/01/2009: Yesterday, I received an email response from James Farmer. His response was “To be honest, not really now - we’re focusing on other edublogs elements right now and have slated .tv for some work later in the year.” So, I’ll keep my fingers crossed that they might be able to get to it later this year.
