Angel is going to be upgraded from 7.1 to 7.2!  The Angel server will be unavailable from noon on April 29, 2008 until 8 a.m. on May 2, 2008. All course development work you do between now and April 28, 2008 will be moved over to the new server. 

If you would like a preview of 7.2 please logon to the test server at http://testangel.fgcu.edu.  To login, use the same username and password as you use to login to Angel now.  You should have copies of your current courses on the test server, however, you'll see that there are some additional features available. Please note, that course materials are not backed up on this server, so you will need to create your own backup through the Manage Tab. If you wish to work on the test server during the scheduled upgrade, please note that the test server will be slower than the new server.
