cel4145 (a.k.a. Charles Lowe), Owning Knowledge: New Intersections of Intellectual Property, Technology, and Academia, Kairosnews, May 4, 2004. A proposal for a panel discussion at the 2005 Conference on College Composition and Communication includes the theme: "collaborative authorship and open access to information and creative works portend thriving knowledge formation in composition pedagogy and scholarship." Individual presentations explore this in terms of open source, the intellectual commons, new approaches to pedagogy, among others.

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.
