has anyone devised a VLE AUP or written a section in their acceptable AUP policy ?
any pointers or samples would be greatly appreciated

I'm working in a primary-aged school, so this may not suit your particular context, but we made things fairly simple, along the lines of 'you behave online as you would in the classroom'. Here's what we say:
The key idea is that you behave in this Virtual Environment just as you would in a normal lesson. This means:
- You concentrate on the work! So our focus is on this to help us to learn, although we can have some fun occasionally too;
- You treat everyone with respect: you really mustn't write anything which might upset anyone else, or that you wouldn't mind seeing written about you yourself;
- You join in, so post entries to the glossary, reply to other people's questions etc.;
- You ask for help if you're not sure about something, or are challenged - the homework discussion is a good place for this;
- You respect others' privacy, so don't use someone else's username, or let other people know your password; and
- You look after shared resources, so try not to break anything!
Whilst
we should be the only people able to use this, I don't want to take any
chances, so don't include your phone number, address or anyone else's
in anything you write here - the same applies to any other website you
visit!
Above all though, enjoy using all this and make the most of it!

You might also be interested in Drew Buddie's work at Royal Masonic, in which his students use Moodle's wiki module to construct their own AUP. How's that for social constructionism?
Re: AUP
what a great idea ! I might actually give it a go for a VLE specific AUP.
