When technical problems with Blogger stopped me from uploading new postings to Open Access News, and when I couldn't wait any longer for a fix, I sent two emails of OA news to the SPARC Open Access Forum, one on the evening of April 10 and one on the morning of April 11. Please see those emails to catch up on what you've missed. If I have time in the coming hours or days, I'll re-blog the important items from them.
Update. I've now re-blogged the major news stories from the two SOAF postings.

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.
