City College Plymouth also uses Moodle. The programmer
that administrates it is in the same open plan office
as my team.  At some point I or another member of my
team will be working to build integration between moodle
and our enrolment system, working cooperation with the
it programmers.

I had a good look at moodle at one point, even considered
using it for a web project I was working on, but then
abandoned it as it wasn't quite what I needed.  I was
however impressed with the quality of the product compared
to a lot of expensive commercial 'systems' that I have
to deal with every day...
