Some Really Useful Tools

Liam Earney as Casper, together with the web2rights team, has produced a really useful tool on copyright clearance, which can be found at: http://www.web2rights.org.uk/casper/ . There is also another free to use copyright toolkit that has just been released by the EduServ Foundation.

And Sheila McNeill from Strathclyde University is part of a team developing a webservice which will convert content into various different types of packages e.g. IMS CPs, moodle, Blackboard etc. There will be limited set of packaging "flavours" in the first release, but they hope that this will be built on. To do that they need some idea of the most popular packages people really need. There is more information (including contact info) @ http://wiki.cetis.ac.uk/Get_Involved_with_Transcoder.
