The March issue of Walt Crawford's Cites & Insights is now online. This issue has a large section on copyright, with Walt's comments on the CTEA, DMCA, DeCSS, DMCRA, CBDTPA, the Creative Commons, and compulsory licensing. He also has a note on the role of librarians in self-archiving (responding to Guy Aron, co-contributor to FOS News), an extended comment on ebooks and etext, and a perspective piece on the Eldred case with a good survey of responses to the verdict.

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.
