Some of the outstanding tasks include:
Joel Thierstein from Connexions and Jessamyn West visited on Friday; good conversations were had
around texts and modular materials. [http://www.cnx.org CNX] has some interesting new Physics modules - checking to
see if [http://www.fhsst.org FHSST] has time to integrate with their own work; they've gotten involved with
[http://www.curriki.org Curriki], so the project is certainly alive.


We are talking about a space to list status and qualities of existing free and collaborative
text projects - perhaps a rebirth of freetextbookproject itself. Advocates needed for travel
in publishing and creative circles.

[[category:news]]
a Free Culture Cambridge is starting an open space for collaboration, creation, and contribution to open
content projects. We're starting weekly gatherings Mondays, at a place to be determined soon; if you
are interested in joining, send a note to sj@laptop. Early initiatives will include getting OurStories
off the ground, developing swag and materials about free culture spaces and OLPC, and launching searches
for suitable spaces in 6 countries.
