I mistakenly sent this from the wrong address, so it got bounced by the
cc-devel list :)

Hi Dan, Kathi,

I'm not sure if you two have met each other, but if you haven't, you should
definitely talk!

Dan from Creative Commons just gave a presentation at the CC Summit in
Buenos Aires about the direction of a project he's working on involving
K-12 teachers and the ability to gather "clips" from around the web that
then gets assembled into their text books.

Sounds familiar? Kathi, I believe this is exactly what you were talking
about when we met earlier this year, and the solution that Dan has worked
out is almost identical to the one my group suggested to you then. I'm
attaching Dan's presentation to this mail, and also copying CC's
development mailing list.

If you two haven't spoken yet, I propose that you do. :-)

Thanks Jonas for the intro! moving you & cc-devel to Bcc to spare
everyone's inboxes :)

Hi Kathi,

It was a pleasure to meet you a couple of months ago at that meeting, and
I'm glad Jonas put us back in touch. Very interesting to read the feedback
about the editor, I would love to check it out sometime.

How about a call at 11AM PT next Wednesday? That works for me. Let me know
how to reach you (phone, Skype, etc. all fine with me).

Looking forward to it,
Dan

Hi Dan,
We met at the Gates Foundation meeting with Stephen Coller in Palo Alto a
couple months ago! I would love to catch up more on the pasteboard
functionality that you are working on. Sounds very interesting.
We just came back from a textbook creation sprint in South Africa (where
they have CC-BY aligned textbooks that Siyavula created to start with) and
it would be really wonderful to have to the ability to include sources from
the web and have the attribution all done nicely. Here is Colleen Henning's
blog post about the sprint -

Could we set up a phone call for next week? Wednesday 9am - 12pm Pacific
work for me (I am in Central Time zone). Or suggest another better option.
