Paul Stacey has written an article for Creative Commons on the launch of OERu. This is important for OERu - as Wayne Mackintosh writes in an email, "Creative Commons is the air that OER breathes.  Creative Commons provides the legal tools to enable the realisation of the OER vision for more affordable education futures." Stacey writes, "The distinctively open aspects of the OERu, including its use of open-source software, open peer review, open public input, open file formats and open educational resources are key differentiators from MOOCs." He's right, but I'm sure he meant to write xMOOCs.
