>>The plural of CMS is CMSs >>The plural for OER is OER as the 's' is embedded in OER ("Open Educational Resources").

I wonder if that might be confusing, making OER an exception.

>>The OERs' licenses would need to be compatible.

If the "s" is embedded, shouldn't it be OER' (though that seems strange).

Yes - strange as it may seem :-). So I would go with OER' for plural possessives.

I hate to be difficult, but if that's the case, then we probably should have had OER singular in all cases with the 's' and apostrophes added as needed.
