version = 2021052500 release version
requires= 2021052500 same than version
Why 20210525? (25th May 2021) ?
Because master is going to be Moodle 4.0, to be released
on November 2021. And, until then, we are going to have
a couple of "intermediate" releases:
- Moodle 3.10 to be released 9th November 2020. (2020110900)
This version will be using versions from today to 2020110900
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
- Moodle 3.11 to be released 10th May 2021. (2021051000)
This version will be using versions from 3.10 release to 2021051000
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
That means that all versions from today to 2021051000 are going
to be used by those 2 "intermediate" releases (3.10 and 3.11).
And we cannot use them in master, because it's forbidden to have
any overlapping of versions between branches (or different upgrade
paths will fail).
So, get that 2021051000, let's add it a couple of weeks to cover
the on-sync period (or a 2 weeks delay max!) and, the first version
that master can "own" in exclusive (without any overlap) is, exactly,
25th May 2021, hence our 20210525.
Significant string changes:
* importgroups_help,core_group - Correcting optional fieldnames
(removing picture, hidepicture and adding groupidnumber, groupingname
and enablemessaging)
* penaltyforeachincorrecttry_help,core_question - additional paragraph
about scoring logic
* resultdownloadready,tool_dataprivacy - wording corrected (no need to
go to a download page)
* auth_dbfielduser,auth_db - varchar data type requirement
Fix GIFT import to respect default answernumbering for new multichoice
questions (introduced in MDL-50011). Default for shuffleanswers is still
ignored, as this is a rather coarse-grained way to do it, and the wrong
setting for shuffleanswers would irreversibly alter the meaning of some
questions.
This is not an ideal long-term fix, but will save significant effort
for anyone who needs to be able to set answernumbering style for
questions imported in GIFT format.
Questions formats do not store any personal data.
Any contrib format which does store personal data should utilise the
standard export interfaces as this subsystem will not call them directly.

Note: On purpose, the course format social wrong version (2015102100)
has been kept unmodified. Looking forward a solution right now.
following_should_download_between_and_bytes step sometimes
fails because of server speed. Added extended timout
ensuring they wait enough before failing.

If the download step is the last in the scenario then we
can sometimes run into the situation where the download page
causes a http redirect but behat has already conducted its
reset (generating an error). By putting a logout step we avoid
behat doing the reset until we are off that page.
Really, this is just to test the new behat setps, as much as anything.
Note that the details of what is written to the export files is tested in
the unit tests.
Adds a set of options to the essay question type which implement
the following new features:
-Adds an input format which accepts only file uploads, and no
inline text.
-Adds an option to make the inline text response optional when
attachments are enabled, so students can choose to upload
an essay file.
-Adds an option to make attachments required, so essays without
attachments will be marked incomplete.
The problem was with the non-UTF-8-safe way that a question name
was being constructed from the question text.
I have done a proper fix with methods in the base class to
carefully construct a question name that is reasonable, and
which will fit in the database column. Then I have changed all
importers to use the new methods.
I also remembered not to break the lesson in the process.
Using consants to refer to plugin names is crazy. The whole point of
plugins is that you can install more, hence the list of constants will
never be complete.
