It's interesting to read discussion about open educational repositories when as Clint LaLonde remarks of his own work, everything I create here becomes an open educational resource. Now true, you can't stick a paywall around my site and start charging access, but that is not what defines an open educational resource. Rather, any person in the world can access it and learn from it, and any course or educational institution can link to it and, if they share it openly, post it on their own website or their own course. So I figure my own 'repository' includes (if you add photos) about 30,000 resources - 16K posts, 15K photos, and maybe 1K presentations, articles and oddements. Every time I write something, every time I present, I create an OER. That's how we create OERs, we don't need big funding programs (that give their money to well-established fund-raisers like MIT).
