Laval University Library has released Archimede, new open-source software for building and maintaining an open-access, OAI-compliant eprint archive. It supports both metadata and full-text searching. A future release will automatically generate subject headings for indexing from the eprint text. Archimede runs on both Linux and Windows.

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.
