I came across this series of blog postings from Auricle on moodle. Reading them in order shows an evolution in understanding of moodle not too different from my growing understanding of it.
I especially like the quote
"One of Moodle's greatest strengths is that it appears not to get in the way of designing a course to suit what the developers want rather than have to shoe horn it into an environment that substantially changes how the course is delivered.... If you wish to deliver courses that support a student centred approach then this is what it does."
That illustrates for me why many other institutions locally, similar to Augsburg, are moving towards moodle.
