The first OCWC Webinar was held yesterday. Tom Caswell, the project manager for the latest release of eduCommons, presented on some of the key features of the new release. As eduCommons is a Content Management System designed specifically for OCW projects, you may want to check out the key features at http://www.eduCommons.com if you are thinking about starting an OCW project.

This is the last release to be funded by the Hewlett Foundation. eduCommons will now be an open source software for the community to further develop.
