Known Issues in Version 1.1:

• Sometimes the twitter post for the 30 question activation quiz does not succeed. This can be due to failure of the network connection, or navigating away from the application before the post can succeed.
• Web Dynpro ABAP question: "In Web Dynpro ABAP, which of the following method calls is typically superior from a performance perspective?" - The quiz assertion that one option is superior is no longer applicable. SAP have advised that the documentation in help.sap.com will be updated to reflect this.
• From 31 August 2010, Twitter shutdown basic authentication service for Twitter posts, and new activation quiz results no longer posted to the Twitter account. This only affected the collection of statistics, and did not affect operation of the app for users. On 17 Sep 2010 Apple approved an update to the app (Version 1.2) which now posts to a Google forms service. This is only relevant to new users, as the posting only occurs after the initial 30 question activation of the app.
