I'm a General Coordinator of Research and Maintenance of Consolidated Products. We were planning a Coffe break with a round table with the openning by our Minister of Science and Technology for the Open Access Day, October 14th. But, he can not confirm, considering that he was suddenly called upon to participate in a trip to Spain. So, now we try to organise a round table at Rio de Janeiro with all the researches institutes of the Ministry of Science and Technology. This round table will debate the Open Access in Brazil, the IBICT's actions toward Open Access and at the end we plan to setup a special number of the journal Liinc in Review, dedicated to present and discuss Open Access, and the Open Access policy to all researches institutes from the Ministry of Science and Technology. Now, we work hard to finish the negotiation of this policy with those Institutes. This journal have some articles written in portuguese, but for this issue there are some articles in english and french.
