Summary: Authentication
Initial Comment:
It should be possible to
* share student information between subjects
* obtain student information from, and check passwords
against, an external directory such as an LDAP server
or a VLE.
There should also be better provision for self-registration
and finely controlled guest access.

the solution to this that we are going to follow at York is to
handle all the authentication through Moodle.
User accounts in Moodle are shared between subjects.
Moodle has a large number of different options for how it
does its authentication and thus there should be something
there for most institutions. You can find a description of the
features here:
http://moodle.org/doc/?file=features.html.
I think it would be too much work to try to replicate all that
in AiM itself.
