>From what I can tell, enabling $cfg->developermode will only happen when
not in production mode and it seems to only have affected whether to
include unpacked MochiKit in the site and also whether to include
debug.css in the site.  Despite the comment including "among others" I
couldn't find any other areas affected by this setting.

Title:
  Check if we still need the config parameter "developermode"

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  There is the config.php parameter "developermode". It says in /lib
  /config-defaults.php:

   * @global int|bool $cfg->developermode Developer mode
   * When set, the following things (among others) will happen:
   *
   * * 'debug.css' will be included on each page. You can edit this file to add
   *   debugging CSS at your discretion
   * * the unpacked version of MochiKit will be used
   *
   * These options are a performance hit otherwise, enable when you are
   * developing for Mahara
   */
  $cfg->developermode = false;
  // $cfg->developermode = DEVMODE_DEBUGCSS | DEVMODE_UNPACKEDJS;

  ---

  It would need to be checked what "among others" is. We are not using
  debug.css and Mochikit has been removed. Before we get rid of the
  parameter though, it would need to be checked if removing it impacts
  anything else.

  Once the analysis is available, we can make a decision.
