Open University course under CC license

Ray Corrigan, a lecturer at the UK's Open University, writes, "the first Open University course to be released under a Creative Commons licence is now available. Unfortunately the server administrators have decided that people need to register a verifiable email address before being allowed into the site but it is otherwise openly available. Fittingly, the course is based on Larry Lessig's book, The Future of Ideas." Link (Thanks, Ray!)

Update: BK DeLong sez, "Johns Hopkins School of Public Health just launched their own Opencourseware following in MIT's footsteps - their first 6 courses are live."
