The JISC-funded Rights and Rewards Project has released the results of a survey of UK teachers and scholars who might deposit work in OA repositories. The survey asked about the rights that depositors would like protected and the rewards that would encourage them to deposit. The questions focus more on teaching-related deposits than research-related deposits.

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.
