  • ILIAS 10.9 planned for end of June.
  • ILIAS 9.21 not scheduled yet.

4.2 Mantis Reports

Needs Jour Fixe Decision

The following Mantis reports have been tagged with 'Needs Jour Fixe Decision' and were therefore be discussed in detail:

  • #47840: yaireo/tagify requires nodejs 22: We prefer to drop nodejs20 support because it is no longer support and might come with security issues. Therefore, also ILIAS 9 and 10 need nodejs 22 or higher. Please add a short notice to the Changed Behaviour section and a note in the release notes of the upcoming version 9.21 and 10.9.

4.3 Mantis Statistic

Current information from Mantis:

The statistics show that bug fixing has been more intensive than usual in recent weeks. Many thanks to everyone who contributed. That's great !

                        * … Issues with status 'open' and 'fix.acc.prio.' are recorded.

To place the current data for each JourFixe in the context of a specific course of development, you can see the trend over the last months here.

4.4 Changed Behaviour in Maintained Versions

Below we list all changed behaviour in the full maintained ILIAS versions. This information is managed in a dedicated media pool to which all developers should have access. If not, please contact Kunkel, Matthias [mkunkel].

Full Screen
  • Data Collection:
    • The new field type "Copy" was added to the data collection and can now be selected for new fields! A copy field shows a selection of values from another tables entry and copies those to its own value without a reference, making it robust against manipulation and deletion of the origin value.
  • Media objects:
    • We moved to native video tags which do not officially support srt files for subtitles. The supported standard is WebVTT. ILIAS tries to convert srt to vtt on the fly. You will be not able to upoad srt files anymore, please use vtt files instead, see https://mantis.ilias.de/view.php?id=43935
  • Object:
    • Titles and Desciptions will always be interpreted as strings. Contained html-tags are encoded and shown in their literal form.
  • Test & Assessment:
    • Cloze questions do not offer the option to edit gaps in modals anymore. All gaps are available, as previously, underneath the cloze-text input field.
    • Redirect: Starting with Version 10.3, we introduce a separate option to redirect to the logout screen, as redirecting to https://instance.url/logout.php does not work anymore since ILIAS 10.1.
    • Create Export File with HTML Code: The JourFixe on 09 FEB 2026 decided to remove the setting "Export Essay Question with HTML code" from the Test & Assessment administration. Code was removed on 09 FEB 2026 from the release_10, release_11, and trunk branches. (ILIAS Version 10.6)
  • Mediacast:
  • Page Editor:
    • The owl carousel library has not been proposed for ILIAS 10 and thus is not part of it anymore (it was part of the legacy accordion UI element). The page component now implements a simple transisition between carousel pages.
  • Page Editor:
    • The legacy UI element advanced select input gui has been removed from the code. The editor now uses a standard select input in forms for these cases. These do not show advanced style visuals.

4.5 Development Issues of Maintained Versions

The following development issues concern one or more maintained versions. Issues related to trunk are listed further below.

  1. Booking Pool: Revision of List View in tab ›› Bookable Items: Within the implementation and testing, we encountered the following problems and therefore had to expand this Feature Request in two places:

    View Control (Table / Week)

    In this Feature Request it was documented, that the Week View is not changed. This is still correct, but we came to the fact, that for accounts with read permissions it was not possible to directly access the Week View. It was only presented in the second step of the booking process.

    Therefore we have introduced the view control (Table / Week), which previously only was shown for accounts with edit permissions, also for accounts with read permissions.

    Period Filter

    With this Feature Request we have introduced a new table, which shows all bookable items and time slots. In big Booking Pools this could be a problem.

    Because we are not able to limit the number of lines of the table, we decided to expand the setting "Default Value for ‘Period’ Filter". This default value now applies to the bookings tab and the bookable items tab.

    JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe]: We highly appreciate this suggestion and accept the extension of the feature request as described above by Simon.

  2. Booking Pool: Remove Legacy UI with ILIAS 11: This feature page contains the UI changes which were made at the Booking Pool with ILIAS 11 in order to remove the Legacy UI at the tabs 'Bookings', 'Participants' and 'Schedules'. In addition, the UI changes at the tab 'Bookable Items' is described at the Feature Request Booking Pool: Revision of List View in tab ›› Bookable Items.

    PRs with all changes:

    JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe]: We highly appreciate this suggestion and accept it for ILIAS 11.

    Booking Pool: Support all-day schedules: At the implementation of the feature we had to slightly differ from the first mockup.

    PR: https://github.com/ILIAS-eLearning/ILIAS/pull/11620

    Normal Time Slot configuration

    All-Day configutation

    JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe]: We highly appreciated the suggested UI improvement in Chap. 6.1 and accept it for trunk.

4.6 Pull Requests

4.6.1 Pull Requests for Maintained Versions

Pull requests in the ILIAS repository on GitHub that are related to maintained versions of ILIAS.

4.6.2 Looking for Shepherd

The following PRs are adressing components that are currently under no authority. So nobody has the authority to do the related code change and accept the PR. We are looking for shepherds that check and review the PR and merge it.

5.3 Development Issues in ILIAS 12

  1. Mantis #47836: Rename the 'Anonymous' role as 'Public'.: Language authority Chris Potter suggests to rename the global role 'Anonymous' to 'Public'.

    JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe]: We recognise the issue Chris has raised. However, changing the role name would have numerous implications and producing inconsistencies esp. related to the anonymous user. It would be better to review the related language entries in the chat and other components and to replace the reference to 'Anonymous' (role) with a more appropriate term. Please come back to the JF if there is a new suggestion.

5.4 Pull Requests for Trunk / ILIAS 12

The following pull requests in the ILIAS repository on GitHub are related to the current development activities in trunk.

  • none

Postponed to next Jour Fixe

5.5 Dependencies in ILIAS 12

Process for the Jour Fixe on dependencies:

  • Please provide a separate PR for each dependency to be added until 9 days before the Jour Fixe. A template for the text of the PR is available as Github-Template. Please make sure you fill in all required information. You need to make the PRs against `composer_new.json` and `package_new.json` not against the production files.
  • Please do not forget to add the Tag "dependencies" to your PRs.
  • Please have a look at the proposed dependencies before the Jour Fixe. We will only look at those dependencies more closely about which questions are asked.
  • Be sure to be aware of significant changes in the maintenance of the dependencies you propose.
  • It is possible to propose dependencies later on, but in order to keep the trunk of ILIAS as functional as possible, we kindly ask you to go through all the dependencies you proposed for ILIAS 11.
  • The dependencies will be merged by the Technical Board.

The following pull requests have been set on the agenda to be discussed:

  1. PR11626 • Add jstree as npm Dependency for ILIAS 12
    • Dependency already used
    • Status of maintenance: Last release is two years ago. Code seems to be pretty stable.
    • Used by: legacy explorer component
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 12.
  2. PR11627 • Add chart.js as npm Dependency for ILIAS 12
    • Dependency already used
    • Status of maintenance: chart.js is actively maintained by multiple contributors. New releases are published every few weeks/months.
    • Used by: components/ILIAS/Poll and components/ILIAS/Skill
    • Decision: Dependency is accepted for ILIAS 12.

5.6 Deprecated for ILIAS 12

The following services, methods and UI elements are deprecated for ILIAS 12:

  • ILIAS/components/ILIAS/UIComponent
    • ilConfirmationGUI & ilConfirmationTableGUI
    • ilCheckboxListOverlayGUI
    • ilExplorer
    • ilProgressBar
    • ilSyntaxHighlighter (removed from trunk)
    • ilTextHighlighterGUI
    • ilToolbarGUI
    • ilTabsGUI
    • ilNestedList
  • ILIAS/components/ILIAS/Table

5.7 Project 'Removing of Legacy-UIComponents-Service and Table'

No meetings since the last report.

There is a lack of financial resources, which makes it difficult to take the conceptual discussions forward without the expectation of subsequent implementation.

Next project meetings:

  • Monday, 22 June 2026, 14:30 – 16:00 – As a replacement for 08 June 2026, which has been postponed.
  • Monday, 06 July 2026, 14:30 – 16:00 – Regular meeting or compensation with a brief status update.

6 New Feature Requests for ILIAS

We do no longer schedule features for a selected ILIAS version but for trunk in general. Features that are accepted for trunk can be implemented for one of the upcoming ILIAS versions depending on the resources of the involved developers and the funding partners.

  1. Data Collection : Printable Single View: We highly appreciate this suggestion and accept it for trunk.

  2. LOM metadata for Learning Sequences: We highly appreciate this suggestion and accept it for trunk. The support of LOM will only be implemented for the LSO object itself and there will be no metadata harvesting of the embedded objects. For the embedding of LOM please see the related md file mentioned by Tim above. As there is no local use of metadata within the object, there is also no need for a checkbox to enable metadata within the LSO.
