Hi,
I heard a "rumour" around our institution yesterday that our current  
Blackboard system is to be replaced with  Desire 2 Learn this summer.   
The decision is rumoured to be going forward without the planned  
consultations due to our current BB license coming due; however, I  
have not yet had this substantiated.

When I searched the LLTI listserv to learn whether anyone was using  
this system with foreign languages, I noticed just one discussion from  
2004 warning that at that time it was not Unicode compliant.  I am  
wondering if anyone has any recent experience with this system to say  
whether or not this has been rectified or if there is any other  
feedback, concerns or jubilations on this product.

All the best,
Deanne
