The patch highlights the undelete radio selector at the host edit form.
It moves it to the end of the form (near the submit button) and displays
an explanation above the radio selector.
Also, the list of deleted hosts is now displayed below the table of
active peers at the Manage peers page.
The data returned by mnet_get_hosts() function now contain the deleted
status, too. It is possible to obtain deleted hosts from that function
now.
The 'confirmed' field can't be optional. If the identity provider did
not export it, the new remote user would be created with 'confirmed' set
to default zero and as such could be a subject of scheduled deletion.
- The way that mnet rpc functions are registered. Plugins must now
create db/mnet.php which is an array, similar to services.php. This
*replaces* the old mnet_publishes() functions. version.php must be
bumped to trigger this.
- More information about each rpc-available function is stored in the
database, including the class it belongs to, the file it is found in,
and whether or not it is static. Methods that are not static must be
in a class with a constructor that takes no arguments (this can easily
be achieved with a small wrapper if necessary)
- The xmlrpc dispatcher has been rewritten to remove all the
dependencies on hardcoded information about auth,mnet,portfolio and
repository, and just use the information in the database.
- The old hardcoded hidden mnet/testclient.php has been moved to the
Admin menu under "Development" and rewritten.
- The xmlrpc introspection method profiling is now using php and zend
reflection - which is a lot nicer than the old way, which was using a
php-based php parser. This fixes some inconsistent handling of
methods without arguments that were advertising their return value as
the only method parameter. While this is a *fix*, it breaks BC
slightly - the old 1.9 broken mnet/testclient.php will now not work
properly with 2.0
- Dangerous mode is still supported, but old mod/*/rpclib.php is
now unsupported, due to the fact that any plugin can export mnet
functions with db/mnet.php. This is a slight BC break.
Still TODO:
- TEST TEST TEST
- Document the two small BC breaks in release notes
- Document the contract for db/mnet.php
* Allow multiple roles to be allocated by identity provider
* Allow existing enrolment plugins to manage mnet enrolments

Where Moodle sites had a path in their wwwroot, the MNET function that
forced remote users to go via their identity provider (to make sure they
were logged in) previously directed the user back to a URL like
contentprovider.com/moodle/moodle/mod/forum/view.php?f=7 where there
should only be one /moodle in the middle of the URL.
