An exam due date can be inferred from the end date of the course if the exam does not have a due date. In the legacy proctoring system (the edx-proctoring plugin), this inference is made in the proctoring code by calling the edx-when API. This is possible because edx-proctoring is a plugin that's installed into the edx-platform, into which edx-when is also installed. In the new exams service, we do not want to call to the LMS to get due date information from edx-when. This poses a number of problems, not all of which are solved by this commit. This commit allows the exams service to infer a due date for an exam if that exam does not have a due date at the subsection level. Note that this is a departure from edx-proctoring. This also opts out exams powered by the new edx-exams service from personalized learner schedules (PLS)/relative dates, because we no longer consider the pacing type of the course.

This directory contains code relating to the Open edX Content Management System ("CMS"). It allows learning content to be created, edited, versioned, and eventually published to the `Open edX Learning Mangement System <../lms>`_ ("LMS"). The main user-facing application that CMS powers is the `Open edX Studio <https://edx.readthedocs.io/projects/open-edx-building-and-running-a-course/en/latest/getting_started/CA_get_started_Studio.html#>`_
