Abstract	In 2003, based on the work done by the OUNL on Educational Modeling Language, IMS-LD was released and brought to the research community a new era in the design of learning activities. Six years later, IMS-LD is no longer evolving while facing an increasing number of critiques. The specification is still not implemented by any leading brands in the e-learning industry. The current development of new IMS specifications offers a window of opportunity to rethink IMS-LD. After discussing IMS-LD, trying to understand the existing critiques and analyzing the new technical context, this paper proposes the guidelines for the creation of this new learning design specification. This specification would be split in two specifications satisfying both the instructional designers and the learning platform developers and vendors. The specification optimized to learning platform vendors, called Simple Learning Design 2.0 will be designed to ease the deployment of the learning design concepts in the existing Learning Management Systems. SLD 2.0 is currently developed in the context of the SynergiC3 project.
