Nate,
Very helpful. I love the idea of having it all in one place.

At first I wanted to pull some of the items like "accessibility" and  
"rights and permissions" into their own list. They seem different than  
functionality that specifically supports teaching and learning.

But the more I think about it the more I like the one list to rule  
them all. It supports the idea that most of these concepts should be,  
like "Grading/Ranking/Rating/Reviewing/Evaluating", pervasive and  
omnipresent -- baked in everywhere -- in the same way that  
accessibility should be baked in everywhere and supported by the  
underlying architecture.

Thanks,
Eli
