At the SCORE event in Leeds (13 May) expriences and ideas around sustainability and OER were shared. Presentations included two from UNICYCLE on institutional embedding of OER, and MEDEV on the risks of OER release within medicine and policies to address this. One of the more intriguing ideas (of many) was that of a Consent Commons. The discussion fed into what we called 'The Leeds Manifesto'. This sets out 12 aspirations which if met will significantly help in acheiving OER sustainability and help to demonstrate these.

The draft of the manifesto is available here. Comments are welcomed on the OER and sustainability Cloudworks cloudscape.
