Agenda
Updates on MVP Delivery Platform
 * Learner Resources
 * WENotes enhancements - harvesting from our Rocket.Chat, Discourse, Email Groups, and Blogs based on tags. See this example for our upcoming Partners' Meeting.
 * Bookmarks - our new bookmarking utility for incorporation into courses, fulfilling the role of a course resource bank
 * Our new OERu video channel
 * Collaborator Resources
 * Improved marketing collateral, like case studies, templates, logos
 * Enhanced Analytics for our online materials, along with a bunch of useful utilities (e.g. the ability to track the use of links in our materials shortened via our link shortener (example short link: https://oer.nz/a )...
 * Our interactive chat system, built on Rocket.Chat
 * Our planning system, built on Wekan
 * our issue tracking system, built on MantisBT
 * Our Single Sign-On process - still a work in progress. We're focusing on a technology called OAuth2. We will use our "course" WordPress multi-site installation as the main port of call for collaborators and learners alike.

Also, a new Resource for partners - our Tech Blog - we plan to put how-tos, technology previews, and other good stuff here.
