Hello,
did you ever hear of PirateBox? If not, Wikipedia has an article about
it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PirateBox
Today, an article by boingboing landed in my stream, telling me, that
LibraryBox, a fork of PirateBox (see http://librarybox.us/), reached
v2.0. You can read it here:
http://boingboing.net/2014/02/25/librarybox-beta-goes-2-0-self.html
Why this is interesting for Open Education?
Well, in my opinion, it's a constraint (disk space, bandwidth), creators
should consider when designing OER. Especially when planning to ship it
in emerging markets.
Moreover, the project is licensed under GPLv3:
https://github.com/LibraryBox-Dev/LibraryBox-core
But the distribution isn't that huge, yet:

I'm curious, if this project will emerge further. If you got something
to know, please forward it to me!
Regards
André
