I'm just back from a three day trip, in which I seem to have stumbled into the twilight zone of cyberspace. While I was away, all my outgoing emails went to limbo and disappeared. Even the copies I sent to myself never arrived, something I was too busy to notice until Day 3. Among the unrecoverable messages are personal emails to correspondents, listserv posts, and items for Gavin to blog. I'm now trying to remember, reconstruct, and resend these messages, but I'm sure I'll forget something. If you were expecting an email from me and don't hear from me soon, please don't hesitate to write again.
BTW, apart from my frustration, I'm simply baffled by this problem, since I sent the messages from at least three different ISPs. If anyone has a diagnosis, I'd love to hear it.
Please bear with us as we catch up in our blogging of recent news.

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.
