This post on Many to Many tells a rather chilling tale of an instructor who was not only asked to cease and desist supporting blogs & wikis in her classroom, but also to stop commenting on the CMS sanctioned by her university!

I have heard of a few other cases where folks are being muscled into using one of the big nasty course-management packages for reasons ranging from IP issues to 508 compliance. Both are red herrings, of course, but the notion that a CMS is more like the buildings we teach in than the pedagogy we teach with...well that's obviously a problem.
