The Web2forDev conference (Rome, September 25-27, 2007) is now in progress. The topic is Web 2.0 and knowledge sharing to stimulate development, and many of the presentations have an OA connection. Presentation abstracts are already online, as are videos for the presentations already given. You can also tune in to a live stream of the current presentation.
Update. Ismael Peña-López is at the conference and blogging it under this category at ICTlogy. To find other bloggers, he recommends following the "web2fordev" tag at Del.icio.us, Flickr, and so on.

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.
