The Algorithmic Engineering group at the University of Rome is building the first OA collection of human-filtered spam. The purpose is to provide a useful dataset for spam researchers and tool developers. (Thanks to ResourceShelf.)
PS: Of course spam is already OA. This collection will be "value-added" spam by virtue of the human filtering. Sound familiar?

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.
