[Building Sakai] Gradebook and SIS

[Kenwrick Chan]

Sorry hit the wrong key and it send out.

I was going to mention that it uses Banner's INTCOMP package for the
business logic of getting the grade  into the right Banner table.   That
package is need of an upgrade since it really only addresses the grade.  We
have gotten multiple requests to include more data on the upload e.g. date
last attended, etc.  - all that great stuff they need for financial aid and
veteran's benefits.

Since you're a Banner customer you should be aware that they've stated that
their future is now with LIS .. . but I haven't gotten a confirmation of
when or how .. and I've been asking for some time.
