Heh. Coursentenza. Not all that bad for a site name.

Probably the best way would be to build a solid network of non-english speaking Universities and then, once the kinks are worked out, have them also publish their english-language courses.

There are quite a bunch of Universities out there that already publish lectures, and I'd imagine that with time there will be more and more. A particular example of quality is TIMMS[1], which has been around almost as long as MIT open courseware.

OK, since we are doing bar talk here. I have a gut feeling that North European Universities will jump into this soon enough. They want to be innovative, if they had a good platform with some kind of official back up, they would be adding courses in a blink of an eye.
