They are compiling together free and CC-licensed works — and they are
asking for people to help them by submitting links to free books,
movies, and music. Creative Commons will be burning a <a href="http://wiki.creativecommons.org/LiveContent_2.0">LiveDVD</a>
to be distributed at South by Southwest; OLPC will be making bundles of
books to send all over the world; and Textbook Revolution will be
compiling a list of good and free college-level textbooks for the
relaunch of their site."</i>
