The UNESCO Open Educational Resources (OERs) discussion has started, with the first topic being the question of taking OERs beyond the OER community. I'm not sure exactly what that is, but my sole contribution thus far is a plea to think of contributors as more than just institutions andf consumers as more than just school teachers.
