French open-access journal ALSIC (on language learning and communication and information systems) has been working in collaboration with Inist / CNRS to improve access to its contents. In December 2002, they have begun providing XML metadata for some of the journal's contents. Here's more information on ALSIC's plans for 2003 (in French).

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.
