QW3 into Beta

Question Writer 3 has moved into Beta. This means that the major bugs have been ironed out and all the new features have been added. There will still be updates as we discover and correct more minor issues.

If you're just starting out with Question Writer, I'd advise moving straight to the < ahref="http://www.questionwriter.com/downloadpages/download-quiz.html">Question Writer Beta - it's already got a lot more features and is more stable than the old Question Writer 2 - Quiz Edition.

Metadata

As Bart Simpson famously said, "Lady, what you don't know about metadata is enough to fill a warehouse." Metadata is a very big subject. It's data about data and if you're organizing a lot of questions, at some point you're going to want to use metadata to describe them.

You can now add four metadata elements to questions - Title, Description, Identifier and Keywords. These are really the basics - I've kept them out of the way in a seperate node, so if you're not using them, you probably won't even notice them, but potentially this metadata node could be expanded over time to include all the other elements.
