Merged outlines
- I took a stab at merging the original outline with the ToC from the UNESCO document. In the process I moved things around a bit and there are a lot of comments (using Seth's [ ] convention). --Philipp 14:24, 25 January 2008 (CET)
- Main change is the addition of publish/produce content. The earlier outline proposed a model that relied on accessing other peoples' content first, then remixing/localising it, and republishing. I think helping more people to publish their materials is also important - and might actually be easier to introduce than remixing other peoples' content. --Philipp 14:24, 25 January 2008 (CET)
- Is it ok to use the term OER/resources rather than content --Philipp 14:24, 25 January 2008 (CET)
