Robert David Steele Vivas, Information Peacekeeping, a PPT presentation to be given at the Peacekeeping Intelligence Conference in Stockholm (December 2-3, 2004). Excerpt from the OSS.Net press release: 'There are three bright spots within the U.S. Government that offer a multi-billion dollar return on investment within the open content side of
Information Operations. If the Secretary of State will sponsor an Open Source
(Information) Agency as the 9-11 Commission recommends on page 413, with a
focus on support to public diplomacy, and if the Secretary of Defense will
sponsor a Defense Open Source Information Program, we can, within the year,
double or triple what can be known and acted upon in relation to global issues
affecting not only our national security and prosperity, but the security and
prosperity of all Nations.' Steele is a proponent of intelligence reform the CEO of OSS.Net.

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.
