 * 23) * Recommended mapping of what courses OERu is looking for against what partner institutions have available.

 * 27) * Recommended the inclusion of discussions of quality guidelines for OERu courses in the context of the proposed rationalisation of OERu working groups agreed at the recent international partners meeting.
