Thanks for the pointer David I will add this to the list of resources for the meeting.
I agree, and suspect that there are many lessons and policy protocol examples we can remix from the Prior Learning and Assessment Recognition (PLAR) experiences for OER futures. It is serendipitous that you should mention this, as we speak Athabasca University is planning an international comparative study of policy protocols relating to PLAR to identify reuse potential for the "OER university" concept. Gut feel tells, me that we have two challenges to overcome -- I don't think that classical PLAR approaches will scale well (for example, assessment of portfolios is time intensive for both learners and assessors.) and I think that we can engineer more cost effective ways of doing this. But its still early days. Lot's of thinking and reflection needed.
