More on the Eldred case....Eldred's lawyers have submitted the final version of their brief to the U.S. Supreme Court. As expected, the brief argues that copyright extension (shrinking the public domain) violates both the constitution's copyright clause and the First Amendment.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
