A preview and FAQ for the Cape Town Open Education Declaration is available and it looks like schoolforge.org.uk will be adding a signature to those already there as it codifies many of our aims and efforts. This is an initiative arising from a meeting between the OSI, the Shuttleworth Foundation and others that aims to "accelerate the international effort to promote open resources, technology and teaching practices in education".
I was also pleased to see this in the Open Resources statement:
Resources should be published in formats that facilitate both use and editing, and that accommodate a diversity of technical platforms. Whenever possible, they should also be available in formats that are accessible to people with disabilities and people who do not yet have access to the Internet.
There's some resonance with the Open Web concept as defined by the Mozilla Manifesto and which provides a platform for many of these aims.
