Well... do we? Maybe not? And maybe we don't want a Wiki that bears little
or no resemblance to other MediaWikis... I think this question is worth
considering.. will more chickens in the coup make it better?
This is awesome David, it will be right up there with the South African
Curriculum on Wikibooks, but taking it one step further by the sound of it.

David,
This is great to read. What an amazing step to put all this forward as
an OER Highschool. You say it will be free to students in Utah, will
students outside of Utah still have access? Or will all this just be
"open" within the state of Utah? And therefore be used to prove out
the model...
Simon and Leigh,
We haven't been talking about it much, because we're still one step in
the approval process away, but for a year now we've been working on
establishing the Open High School of Utah - a publicly funded (and
therefore free as in beer to students in the state of Utah) completely

Great post Simon, I enjoy your wit :)
