I like the idea of the "open" license for exam content. Personally, I don't see any significant disadvantages - and I see no loss of a requirement that the material is well understood in order to successfully pass the exams. By embracing an open concept it has the added value of potentially greater quality control with more scrutiny by more eyes. It also projects a transparency that I think would be appreciated and commendable. Besides, it just "fits" with the open source model. > If things work out, we could try it with other exams.

I'm not so sure about this idea. This seems to imply breaking the existing structure and flow of LPI exams, or creating a separate stream. Or, are you suggesting that the 304 exam may not fit at the 300-level, and that there should be a similar set of non-linear exams/specializations at the 100-level?
