On a related note, the BBC recently made available some excerpts from
its broadcast media, using an open licence for the first time, in
response to my suggestion. Details are at:

I'm running an event with them in January, where more will be
released, and I believe a few places are still available, should any
of you wish to attend and assist in selecting the new open content
(book via the above post). You'd be most welcome!
