<div id="outerframe">
<div id="main">
<p>Chamilo is an elearning and course management web application,<br />

and is free software (GNU GPL). It's translated into 30 languages,<br />

SCORM compliant, and light and flexible.</p>


<p>Chamilo supports many different kinds of learning and collaboration activities.<br />

Teachers/trainers can create, manage and publish their courses through the web.<br />

Students/trainees can follow courses, read content or participate actively<br />

through groups, forums, chat.</p>


<p>Technically, Chamilo is a web application written in PHP that stores data in a <br />

MySQL database. Users access it using a web browser.</p>


<p>If you would like to know more or help develop this software, please visit<br />

our homepage at <a href="http://www.chamilo.org">http://www.chamilo.org</a></p>


<h1>SCORM</h1>

Chamilo FREE imports Scorm 1.2 contents.<br />

For more information on Scorm normalisation, see http://www.adlnet.org<br />

<h1>Licence</h1>

<p>Chamilo is distributed under the GNU General Public license (GPL).<br />

Read the <a href="licence.html">GNU General Public license (GPL)</a> .</p>


<h1>Portability</h1>

<p>Chamilo is an AMP software. This means it should work on any platform running Apache<br />

+ MySQL + PHP. It is then supposed to work on the following Operating Systems :</p>


<ul>

<li> Linux</li>

<li> Windows (98, Me, NT4, 2000, XP, VISTA)</li>

<li> Unix</li>

<li> Mac OS X</li>

</ul>


<p>It has been tested on </p>


<ul>

<li> Fedora, Mandrake, Red Hat Enterprise Server, Ubuntu, Debian </li>

<li> Windows XP, Windows 2000</li>

<li> Mac OS X 10.3</li>

</ul>

<p>Email functions remain silent on systems where there is no mail sending software<br />

(Sendmail, Postfix, Hamster...), which is the case by default on a Windows machine.</p>


<h1>Interoperability</h1>

<p>Chamilo imports Scorm compliant learning contents. It imports then "On the shelve"<br />

contents from many companies : NETg, Skillsoft, Explio, Microsoft, Macromedia, etc.</p>

<p>Admin interface imports users through CSV and XML. You can create a CSV file from<br />

a list of users in MS Excel. OpenOffice can export to both CSV and XML formats.<br />

Many database management systems, like Oracle, SAP, Access, SQL-Server, LDAP ...<br />

export to CSV and/or XML.</p>

<p>Chamilo includes a LDAP module that allows admin to deactivate MySQL authentication<br />

and replace it by connection to a LDAP directory.</p>

<p>Client side, Chamilo runs on any browser : Firefox, MS Internet Explorer (5.0+), Netscape (4.7+),<br />

Mozilla (1.2+), Safari, Opera, ...</p>

<h1>Chamilo.org</h1>

<p>Chamilo is also a consulting company helping companies in their e-learning projects and selling Chamilo PRO and Chamilo MEDICAL.<br />
