It's all about money :-) ... We want to commit our students to our 
university as commercial partner for research and development, inform 
them about class meeting or confereces in house.
The big company networks are too far away from our uni ans then there 
are things like data mining ans so on ... they don't give their services 
for free.

Our alumni network should have:
- seminar groups (b.boards)
- groups of interests (b.boards)
- priv. Messages
- news mails
- personal information page

All this with usefull preferences, sure a small studivz...
I'll take a look at moodle from this point of view.
