Those who signed the PLoS open letter have been sent an email message about posters promoting PloS, and about a call for papers for it's first open-access journal, PLoS Biology. Submissions to PLoS Biology are being accepted from May 1, for a first issue to appear in October (online and print).

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.
