Knowledge, Learning, Community
Good presentation emphasizing not only the size of the e-learning market (about 30 billion USD (+/- 30%)) and the importance of open source in serving that market. The author emphasizes several times that open standards, rather than open source, will be key to accessing that market. Some good discussion near the end of the presentation describing open source business models. Via Scott Leslie, who also provides a link to the rest of the presentations from the Building Open Source Communities conferences, held recently in Edinburgh.
