Matt Pasiewicz has podcast interviews with Duane Webster, Executive Director of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL), and Steve Wheatley, Vice President of the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS). Both interviews touch on OA, among other topics. Unfortunately, I don't have time to listen to them and there are no transcripts.
Update. Matt also has a podcast interview with Glen Newton, acting group leader of the National Research Council of Canada's CISTI Research. In the interview, Newton "compares and contrasts the superstructures supporting research in the US and Canada, shares thoughts about Canada's National Consultation on Access to Scientific Research Data, and offers some commentary on the open source, open content and open access." Again, no transcript.

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.
