Open usage data? Sharing usage data? -- both technically possible, willingness is there, but will depend on practicalities. Similar for licence used, CC-by if poss; personal data may be a constraint

OSS: whatever licence the things being extended used...GPL or similar.

Also roll-out to other projects via Creative Commons, e.g. through licence chooser.

Roll-out will initially be to OU LabSpace, into few specific modules on moodle, then put into migration process LabSpace is upgraded (2013)--funded through OU bridge to success project.

May use Moodle API

minor link with packaging specs used by LabSpace, CC, CP, RSS, Moodle Blocks, SCORM, zip...will add attribution element into these.
