Enterprise-wide deployment of Moodle at Dublin City University.

Moodle http://odtl.dcu.ie/wp/2004/odtl-2004-01.html

Nice paper documenting the rationale and steps to shift from a current enterprise-wide WebCT install to one using Moodle. They looked at three open source alternatives (Boddington, Claroline and Moodle). It is interesting to note what they stated as Moodle's main current weakness, "the fact that, although there were already many small scale deployments in operation, at that time it had not yet been adopted on an enterprise basis by any university-level institution." It will be interesting to see how Sakai stacks up in this regard, as the (perceived or real) lack of 'enterprise-readiness' continues to be one of the main sticking points for larger institutions who may be interested in open source CMS but worried about their ability to scale and integrate. - SWL
