Hi Jaroslaw and the rest of this list, First, apologies for missing the chat earlier today. I had a conflict and could not join until it was over. I read the transcript briefly and will try to join future calls.
Second, in response to Jaroslaw's request below, we already have an extensive database with exactly this information, designed in Semantic Mediawiki format and available for anyone to contribute to. We have not yet formally launched this resource, called ODEPO (Open Database of Educational Porjects and Organizations) because we want to first publish a report based on the data, but that should happen soon, and the database is already live. Visit: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/ODEPO Once you create an account (like all wikis), you can add any organizational info you would like. We strongly encourage you to include descriptions of the project as well. The information within can be sorted, exported, and subject to many different types of analysis. We are also extending the functionality of the software to automate certain features, enable contribution of additional fields of interest, and more. If you have any specific ideas for how this resource can be made even more useful, please let us know. We will also be combining this wiki with our wiki-based mapping tool <http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Open_Education_Events> (currently set to only display upcoming open education events) to geolocate all of the OER projects within on a map. Rather than duplicating effort, I would encourage you to use ODEPO. Feel free to send any questions our way. Thanks, - Ahrash Bissell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - Jane Park ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hi all, i'm trying to put together a comprehensive list of european (in a broad sense - not only EU, but also surrounding countries such as Ukraine) OER organisations, projects and key people. I have set up a simple wiki webpage here: http://mappingeuropeanoer.jottit.com/ Please add your project and projects you know. We are trying to create a comprehensive list of european OER people and organisations for use in networking activities. all the best Jaroslaw Lipszyc
