Thanks to Klaus Graf for the alert and for a collection of useful related links.
For background, see the August 2006 Chronicle of Higher Educationstory on the same problem (blogged here August 9, 2006), which is also cited in Gunthert's article.

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.
