David Becker, Congressional leaders promise action on tech, CNEt News, Jan. 10, 2004, reports on criticisms of RIAA made by Sen. John Sununu (R-NH) and Sen. Joe Barton (R-TX) at a panel of the recent Consumer Electronics Show. Sununu described the RIAA subpoenas as "heavy-handed" and "not what the DMCA was intended to do." Barton was paraphrased as remarking that content providers "need to come up with business models that accomodate modern technology and attitudes," rather than alienating a whole generation of customers.

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.
