Delft is one of my favorite partners. They have a commitment

to free <https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html> and open licensing of 
educational content. This commitment is very important -- I originally 
created the MITx/Open edX platform because I believed education should 
continue to be a public good (as it has been in the past), run in student 
interest, and with high levels of transparency. I was concerned about the 
way digital technology pushes education to be proprietary. Delft is one of 
the few organizations which continues to use Creative Commons licenses, 
despite strong structural pressures to do otherwise.
