Hi Peter, I really like the spin on the wording that that journo has done: WikiEducator looks like Wikipedia. In fact, it uses the same software. And, > like the online encyclopedia, its mission is ambitious.

We shoudl copy that and replace all "one curriculum" sounding lines straight away. Only trouble is, that "ambitious" mission is already happening. Everything is going online, huge amounts of it freely (in terms of copyright), just not all of it is being centralised on Wikieducator.
