DigiWik is a wiki to help publicize and coordinate digitization projects and to collect tips and best practices on digitization itself. (Thanks to Digitizationblog.)
Comment. We've recently seen major statements from Canada (November 17), the EU (November 22), and the UK (November 24) on the importance of coordinating national and international digitization projects. I support coordination frameworks of this kind, especially when they leave room for bottom-up decisions. But a good wiki can supplement them and I hope that this one can do so. For this purpose a "good wiki" is one that's really used.

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.
