[Building Sakai] FW: Interface/integration

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Faust,

I had a look at the WebAssign connector for Blackboard a little while  
ago and it was a webapp (in JSP) that communicates with WebAssign via  
web services. It's not that complicated and I think would be a fairly  
simple integration. I discussed this with another institution using  
Sakai that were interested in doing the same thing so hopefully they  
will get back to you on this.

cheers,
Steve
