UCLA Converges on Moodle of Instruction and Collaboration

At first glance, it might look like UCLA's decision to converge on Moodle for instruction and collaboration university wide is indicative of a shortcoming on Sakai's part. On further investigation, it seems that the decision was more about where UCLA views itself as being able to contribute to the community and alignment with university culture.

In the end, it seems that UCLA's decision could result in a win-win situation down the road for all of the open source LMS and collaboration community. Their continued relationship with Sakai as foundation members demonstrates their belief in that system and bleed-over of UCLA's efforts with Moodle can be assumed without much of a stretch.
