a comment by Simon Buckingham Shum on the Ning group:
"A idea of free, open source universities on the web is of course something that many people are debating these days.
I am heavily involved in the Open Educational Resources movement (eg.
Hewlett Foundation, and
OER Commons), with our own
OpenLearn initiative. Part of OpenLearn is the
LabSpace, providing free hosting to any group who want to use the open source Moodle virtual learning environment with the many extensions that we have added. However, that is just one delivery platform."
