I recall that a few years ago a couple of schools (one in Texas?) 
used/enhanced a BB building block to do shib authN with just in time 
provisioning.

It isn't a tech issue (BB's doc on shib integration dates to 2004), but 
might be one that requires change to existing learning system 
operational procedures.

A google for "shibboleth blackboard" also turned up a recent and 
extensive wiki page at UMBC:

https://spaces.umbc.edu/display/MW/Shibboleth-enabling+Blackboard

I bet there's more to be had. Dunno if anyone's gone further than JIT 
provisioning.
