This is great news,
If such efforts happen more often, then we will soon have educational
resources of all kinds open to every one, irrespective of their gender,
region or religion.
It is a delight to know that educational barriers are breaking in this way.
Happy hacking.

Dear all,
A new National Repository of Open Education Resources is now online, and
the content is all CC-BY-SA. It is hosted on the Gnosys platform
developed by Nagarjuna & Co.
Congratulations to them and to all others who've made this possible.
Let's see how this can be improved and expanded beyond the school-level.
Cheers,
Pranesh

Hi folks,
Savithri just gave me some wonderful news. The new National Repository
of Open Education Resources has been launched, and Dr. Tharoor, the HRD
Minister announced its licensed under CC-BY-SA! *http://nroer.in/home/*
I had all but given up hopes of this as despite Dr. Tharoor supporting
us on record, the NCERT Director Dr. Sinclair wasn't convinced as of
last week. I do not know what transpired thereafter, but this is a major
fillip for us!
