[Open-access] Website up and running!

Mon Feb 20 01:27:21 UTC 2012

If you need images, what about featuring the Open Access File of the
Day from Wikimedia Commons?
It's available via
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Open_Access_File_of_the_Day
, and I am currently looking into ways of providing RSS feeds for it.

Until that happens,
https://toolserver.org/~magnus/catfood.php?language=commons&project=wikimedia&category=Open+access+%28publishing%29&depth=23&namespace=6&user=&size=300&last=100&doit=Do+it
provides a feed of files from OA sources that have recently been
uploaded to Wikimedia Commons.
