The INIST-CNRS web site devoted to Libre Accès à l'information scientifique & technique is launching a series of monthly interviews on the topic of open access. The first one appeared today, with Jean-Pierre Gattuso, director of research at the CNRS oceanography lab at Villefranche-sur-mer and chairman of the biogeosciences division the European Geosciences Union (EGU). See La visibilité des revues en libre accès n'est qu'un problème temporaire, December 13, 2004. (Thanks to Eric Goettmann.)

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.
