Private Universitite
went into wikipedia to investigate the issue of private unis in Australia - as in the UK, there aren't very many. "In Australia, the majority of universities are public. There are 38 public universities and four private universities. The private universities are Bond University, the University of Notre Dame Australia (both Australian), and the two foreign universities, Carnegie Mellon University (USA) and Cranfield University (UK), both have campuses in Adelaide."

OER Commons
Right now we are using the OER Commons wiki (http://wiki.oercommons.org/mediawiki/index.php/Projects) to start to document OER projects; this is a placeholder for what will be be developed for later this fall to centralize info and activity to better understand and share out how people are engaging with and creating new OER at the _project_ level. We are working from the OER Case Study Project to put OER case study tools on the site so that as projects progress they can build their own case studies and engage in continuous improvement in a step-by-step process.
Examples from the case studies and more can be seen at: http://wiki.oercommons.org/mediawiki/index.php/OER_Case_Study_Project ,
