Harvard Open Source Courseware
mpawlo writes "Gnuheter reports that the Berkman Center for Internet and Society releases the H20 courseware software as open source. Two years and 1 million USD are invested in the software so far... The software has been tested at Harvard Law School, but should be suitable for other disciplines than law."

Bwahahahaha, Slashdot got DOS'd!!!
The reason the US is so reviled abroad is that your government has committed evil in your name. You've supported brutal dictators, you've torn down democracies, you've bombed civilians, you've supported invasions of sovereign territory. The real way to stop terrorism is to stop pissing people off so much that they're willing to die just to slap your face. "Shock and Awe" isn't going to stop terrorism, unilateral action isn't going to win friends. Swallow your pride, work through your anger, stop killing so many people. Please.
OMG, jorje bush just dropped the thermel global nucular bomb on iraq!!!
The GOATSE MAN will see you now.
Another word: GOATSEMAN
The Goatse Man will come for you with his razor.
The sad thing is, even after coalition forces found thousands of nerve agent remedies and chem suits belonging to iraqi forces, there are still naive fucks who will say "You don't have proof that Iraq has chemical weapons!!"
Ignorant fucks. Prove to me that Iraq doesn't have them.
Why?
"An American invasion of Iraq is already being used as a recruitment tool by Al Qaeda and other groups," a senior American counterintelligence official said recently, "And it is a very effective tool." So the months and years ahead may be a dangerous time for coalition troops and corresponding civilian populations.
How dangerous depends in no small part on we civilians.
As the counterintelligence official makes plain, a big part of winning the war on terrorism is convincing potential terrorist recruits and supporters that their interests are being served by America and her allies. People are at their most convinced when they are psychologically addicted. Psychological addiction takes shape in the part of the brain called the nucleus accumbens, which is fired by the prospects of professional success, romance and laughs.
By definition, providers of lifelong learning and career services (LLCS) will focus on increasing their clients' professional success. In particular, providers will race to develop and fund their own student loan programs, as most customers will need financing in order to consume their initial bundle of LLCS, and will be drawn to the provider offering the best loan package. These loan programs will, in time, democratize access to LLCS -- and hence, expand prospects of professional success to all who might otherwise become terrorist recruits or supporters.
Credibly sustainable providers will also enable their clients to enjoy more romance and laughs (see opportunityservices.com for details).
Turbocharging maturation of the LLCS market, then, should be a big part of how we civilians support our troops and fight the war on terrorism at home.
Let's Roll (out LLCS startups)! :^)
Are you not aware that people are dying all over the place these days!?

We have a new project similar to that - called SPIDER which lets students view their academic records.
