The plan is to have a single tool looking after all operations with plugin ZIP packages (downloading, unzipping, moving to the dirroot and back). For legacy reasons, we have that logic currently duplicated in mdeploy and tool_installaddon. I would like to unify and simplify the whole machinery to use the same code for available updates, manual installation and plugin dependencies.
QUICK INSTALL ============= For the impatient, here is a basic outline of the installation process, which normally takes me only a few minutes: 1) Move the Moodle files into your web directory. 2) Create a single database for Moodle to store all its tables in (or choose an existing database). 3) Visit your Moodle site with a browser, you should be taken to the install.php script, which will lead you through creating a config.php file and then setting up Moodle, creating an admin account etc. 4) Set up a cron task to call the file admin/cron.php every five minutes or so.
