NBC Nightly News has filmed a story on the NIH open-access plan, and word is that it will air tonight. It may be preempted by other stories (don't say I didn't warn you), but I recommend watching or recording the show tonight. Even if it airs, it probably won't be available online afterwards.

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.
