Creative Commons will soon launch an Italian edition. Yesterday it set the stage with a conference in Torino at which Christiane Asschenfeldt, Lawrence Lessig, and many Italian notables spoke. Neeru Paharia reports that 5,000 pages on neural.it will be re-released with CC licenses to mark the launch. (Thanks to Valentina Comba and the CC blog.)

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.
