OK, time to bring this out of hiding...

You'll see it is a draft. You'll see that there is some data missing.
Also I don't know whether it works or not.
It's also worth noting that finding the information to put on this page
was wayyy harder than it should have been. I want to write this up a bit
more, but I'll say this now: if you have an OER site with an RSS feed or
an OAI-PMH data provider, or an API, don't be shy about it. Don't make
it difficult to find. In fact, why not write a page telling people about
it and how they can use it?
Finally, maybe the CETIS site isn't the best place for this? The people
with a real interest in this information being up to date are 1) the
people providing the data feeds, see above and 2) the people using the
feeds to create a service, who really know what is where and how it
works. Either of them could provide this information better and more
easily than a third party such as me. See also
