History
2005-2006
XCRI was originally developed as part of a project funded by Jisc in April 2005.This project was focused around exploring how education institutions developed their portfolio of courses (also known as curriculum management) and the potential for new approaches to interoperability. The project created an information model and XML schema for course management primarily aimed at use within universities and colleges.2007-2008
In March 2007 an XCRI project received funding from Jisc to focus primarily on developing a much more lightweight specification aimed at helping universities and colleges syndicate information about their courses to aggregators and brokerage services, such as services that handle applications to universities. The project was funded for two years, with the premise that at the end of the project in 2009, the resulting specification would be handed off to an open standards process.
JISC also funded a handful of XCRI mini-projects during this period to pilot and experiment with the information model.
