#SPARC has released its own new info on the new #NIH #OpenAccess policy.
sparcopen.org/wp-content/uploa

Excerpt:

<blockquote>
● The Policy requires immediate public access to articles -- #embargoes are no longer allowed.
● NIH reiterates authors do not have to pay a fee to comply with the Policy.
● The Policy applies to manuscripts accepted for publication on or after July 1, 2025. This means the Policy will apply to existing grants if an article is accepted on or after that date.
● The Policy requires that final peer-reviewed manuscripts be submitted to #PubMedCentral (#PMC) upon acceptance to be made publicly available immediately upon publication.
● The Policy requires that grantees explicitly grant the NIH the right to make the manuscript available in PMC without an embargo.
● The Policy does not explicitly grant full reuse rights of the manuscript to the public.

OK, it's finally finally up. currently #gcc , #coreutils , plus some support libraries, as a proof of concept. For those who don't know, FractalKit is an in-progress collection of modern packages built for #Solaris 10 #SPARC, and they may work on #Solaris 11 also. They can be downloaded at highenergymagic.net/fractalkit - please let us know if there are any bugs, issues, what have you.

Is there anyone in #Australia or #NZ, or who would be willing to ship to NZ, who could donate a #SPARC #Solaris (sun4u/sun4v) machine to the building effort for FractalKit? We're running up against some limits and some really bad time sinks, doing all of this on a 650MHz #UltraSPARC IIe is.... really really painful. We know this is a long shot, but if anyone out there has a machine they could donate to this we would be immensely thankful. This porting effort is really important to us but it's not going to be actually useful if a single library takes a day to compile. If you can't help, then please boost? @SolarisDiaspora
