And from the PUNCH homepage we read:
"PUNCH is a platform for Internet computing that turns the World Wide Web into a distributed computing portal. Users can access and run programs via standard Web browsers. Applications can be installed "as is" in as little as thirty minutes. Machines, data, applications, and other computing services can be located at different sites and managed by different entities.
PUNCH has been operational for five years, and currently serves 50 engineering applications to about 1,000 users across a dozen countries."
Does it have any potential for use with Moodle?
