contains the following article on the Self-Archiving Initiative:

(the above is the preprint: official version is at nature.com).

Nature is also currently running an on-line debate on
"Future e-access to the primary literature" at:

This includes the following commentary by me:

Science is also currently running an on-line debate on
the same topic:

and
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/eletters/291/5512/2318b

All interested (and informed) parties are encouraged to
participate in both debates.
