PENS Sample Code Updated

The PENS Sample Code has been updated to include PHP code that acts as a PENS server to verify PENS commands, and improve the HTML test harness. It is available for download now from: http://aicc.org/pages/pens_sample.html.

The sample HTML files now include more default value for PENS elements, and a minor correction was made to address a typo in the QTI package type (was incorrectly "lms-qti" and is now corrected to "ims-qti"). The package-id generation and formatting was also updated, and notes were added to the form explaining special vendor-data values for use with the PHP-based PENS validation code.

Separately, the PENS specification has been updated to correct a typo in the sample value for the package-expiry element, as noted in the AICC PENS discussion forum in November 2005. The Acrobat version of the PENS specification document has been updated to provide hyperlinks to document subsections and to allow copy and paste operations. Download the current CMI010 PENS (Package Exchange Notification Services) document from the AICC Publications page.
