Jim,

Good question -- I think that depend on your objectives. Do you want
to adapt, modify and encourage collaborative authoring? If so, then
better to copy & paste the text over.

If you want to use the lesson as is -- then it would be easier to link
to CNX.

Good news -- in the future, once we have built the CNX-Mediawiki
import export feature -- you will have the best of both worlds. Click
a button and you'll be able to pull / push WE /CNX content in both
directions :-)

If you have an interest in this sort of thing -- please feel free to
add your thoughts here:

or join our planning group -- these way the functionality we build
will be user driven :-)
