The Research Information Network has issued a call for expressions of interest on research about the effect of Web 2.0 tools on scientific practice. Researchers who express interest will be invited to submit a full proposal; £90,000 in funding will be available. Expressions of interest are due on November 3, 2008. (Thanks to Cameron Neylon.)

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.
