Thanks for getting in touch. We are using moodle 2 as our vle and are just implementing a move from wimba classroom to BB11, not working properly yet though. WBS will also move to BB11 but they have a bespoke vle and are not quite ready yet. Doing the cohort training at the moment and I can recommend it but mostly US folk on there at the moment. Will keep in touch :)
