Vivie Sinou announced the release of Mneme - Test Center 1.1.4 today, an incremental maintenance release for Mneme 1.1:

What's Changed in this Release?
--------------------------------------
The primary reason for this release is Jira issue MN-667: "Add pagination
options in grade submissions to address browser length limitations in large
tests." (Mac / ff freezes with over 100 questions). The rest of the issues
are two minor fixes and a couple of nice enhancements.

MN-667 Add pagination options in grade submissions to address browser
length limitations (Mac / ff) in large tests.
MN-666 Typo in fill-in instructions, under examples.
MN-671 Fill-In answer key is showing html.
MN-661 Enhancement in UI of final score area of submissions.
MN-665 Change TinyMCE color picker option to retain selection.

[NOTE: We will be releasing Mneme 1.1.5 very soon, so unless MN-667 is an
issue for your graders, wait for 1.1.5. The sole focus of Mneme 1.1.5 is new
import functionality to migrate Assignments over to Test Center. ]

TinyMCE Upgrade
--------------------------
The TinyMCE team is pretty active with development and bug fixes. Etudes
upgraded to TinyMCE 3.0.8 last week along with Mneme 1.1.4. If you wish to
upgrade TinyMCE, our download page links to the new version, which is now
available in the sakai maven repo to download and install.
