Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path

I just got back from Berlin where I gave a keynote at OpenSym.  OpenSym is a community of academics in open source, open data, and open education.  My talk examined why open source has been so successful but open educational resource library (OER) usage at the K-12 has stalled over the last decade that it has existed.  What can the OER community learn from the success of open source?  Are there best practices that can be followed by OER libraries that can greater trust and hence usage from both educators and content publishers? 

We believe that OER libraries can learn from some of the underlying principles behind these practices to start to drive greater adoption and more trust among both educator users and content contributors.
