At an April 7-8 conference of French and American scientists at Stanford University, "José Achache, associate director of the European Space Agency, discussed the question of whether providing open access to Earth observation from space should be viewed as an opportunity for researchers or a threat to security." I'd like to hear more, but this summary of the conference proceedings says no more about it. Can any participants provide more detail?

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.
