More upgrades to the Knotes blogging and discussion system.

Regular readers will have noticed the big change in style on this blog.

But there are also small upgrades happening almost every day.

One of those relates to the licensing.

I have - for a long time - had a Creative Commons logo on the site.

Instead of being a graphic, The license is now generated in RDF through a new addition tot eh management interface. OK doesn't look much different.

BUt it is an important upgrade. Using the Creative Commons license properly is a big tool fro fighting the stupid Copyright restrictions the EU are trying to introduce.

Whilst I am on the subject of the blog software - Knownet have released an upgrade of KNotes on Sourceforge. Al Harris says "Knownet has just released a major OSS discussion system for Plone, it's on Sourceforge and it's called KNotes.

To gain a flavour of the product visit

This developement platform allows us to quickly produce customised
Personal Learning Environments (PLE's) and develop powerful collaborative
workflow processes. It allows us to harness all the goodness of Web 2.0
distributed services. "

Great stuff. If you'd like to know more about how you can use KNotes for learning, email me.
