The University of Namibia has launched an open-access, OAI-compliant institutional repository. (Thanks to the EPT.)
(PS: On November 1, we blogged the news that the U of Namibia senate was considering a policy to encourage faculty to provide OA to their work through OA journals, OA repositories, or both. I haven't heard of any action on that yet.)

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.
