Growth of   Open Access is now available, at:
http://poeticeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/12/dramatic-growth-of-open-access-december.html

Highlights include:

Strong growth in open access mandates; institutional mandates
have   tripled since last year. DOAJ is over 4,400 titles,
grew
by over 700 titles or about 2 titles   per day in the last
year.
OpenDOAR has increased to over 1,500 open access archives.
Scientific Commons grew by more than 8 million
publications for a  total of over 32 million. E-LIS has
passed an important milestone  of 10 thousand items. More
than 16 million books are now freely
available under OCA   principles or public domain, thanks
to the
Open Content Alliance.
