With the help of >30 volunteers declared after the Petition
for Open Data in Crystallography (>1300 signatures), the increase is now attaining 2-3,000 new entries per month. Congratulations COD !
PS - This is not enough, a full database should contain
close to 500,000 crystal structures, and the increase per
year is currently close to 40,000...

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.
