Budapest Open Access Initiative

Charles W. Bailey, Jr. writes \”The Open Society Institute (OSI) held a meeting on December 1-2 of last year that resulted in the creation of the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI). Self-archiving
and alternative journals are the two major strategies recommended by the BOAI. The
Open Society Institute has donated one million dollars per year for a three-year
period to support open access initiatives. See the BOAI Web Site\”.

We also got advanced word of this from Steve Cisler.
