2. Sakai Portfolio Community participants at Open Apereo 2014 were
unanimous in their support for a migration path from the Open Source
Portfolio (OSP) to Karuta, the new open source portfolio that is LTI-
integrated with Sakai. This discussion session will begin with a
demonstration of the migration of OSP data from forms, matrices, and
portfolios to Karuta portfolios. Subsequent discussion will examine
continuing Sakai Portfolio Community needs, outline how to access the
latest Karuta release, chart future directions for the Sakai Portfolio
Community, and propose enhancements for future releases of Karuta.
