Blackboard is buying out two major players in the open source services space: Moodlerooms and NetSpot.

With the purchases, the company is also launching its own open source division: Blackboard Education Open Source Services. Teams from both Moodlerooms and NetSpot will make up Blackboard's new open source group.

Both of those companies provide commercial services for institutions that use Moodle, including support, consulting, installation, and hosting services.
