Richard Poynder has interviewed eleven leaders of related openness movements --open access, open source, open spectrum, etc.-- and in a new blog posting describes his frustrating attempt to publish the interviews as a book. He's decided to serialize them on his blog instead, starting in the next few days. Something to look forward to.

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.
