Hi Adam,

I'm *guessing* that the only implication is that your reports will look 
prettier, since I confirmed previously with turnitin that none of their 
API's had changed between releases.  If you can create a Sakai Jira in 
the TII module to track and test this that would be awesome.

I need to check as well and see if we've flipped that switch. ( I 
actually thought it happened automatically a month ago, when they 
released 2 ).
