Hi Peter (and others), Stephen and I are both proponents of sharing educational resources and ensuring dissemination at the widest level is possible. The license on the wiki is temporary. We will be adopting a CC license (just had to put an interim disclaimer on the page until we received permission from U of Manitoba...which we have done).
I'm just waiting for final confirmation from Stephen as to the exact CC license we'll select.
