irony
			
        Its it ironic how the "open university" won't use "open source".



thank god open university degrees aren't worth the paper they are written on, otherwise I would be deeply disappointed.



As it is I am just mildly amused at their lack of foresight.

There seems to be a bit of conflict between the Open University and
the UK's Open Source Consortium on the use of open source software, a
bit of a boxing match (ouch):
