edX Automated Communication Engine (A.C.E.)

Purpose

The automated communication engine, A.C.E. for short, is a Django app for messaging learners on the Open edX platform. This app can be installed in any Open edX project, but has only been tested with edx-platform. Email delivery (via Sailthru and Django Email) are the currently supported delivery channels. In the future we may add support for other delivery channels such as push notifications.
