Repository
The Sharing Cart block (release 6 or later) can upload and download
Moodle activities/resources directly from a Moodle Repository.
The "Download from Repository" button will download already-chosen resources from a new site
built for Moodle for Language Teaching by Version2 Web Development.
In the future, there may be more repository sites available.
Setup and Operation

http://moodlelang.org
- Install the Sharing Cart block on your home site — download from CVS:
