Creative Commons was working on an "open patent license" or "public patent license" for patent owners to openly license the patent rights downstream, in case anyone forgot about this:
http://sciencecommons.org/projects/patent-licenses/
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Patent_Tools_Public_Discussion
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CC_Public_Patent_License
http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Patent_License_Drafter%27s_Notes
Some new content has popped up in the last year.
openpatents.org
has popped up:

A nice overview of open patents:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_patent
"Open science business models"
http://www.slideshare.net/technollama/open-science-business-models
Just in general on defensive patent pools (like Open Invention Network):

Somewhat unrelated to the legal issues:

There have been a number of previous threads on OM about this, so collecting a list of those links [to those threads] would be a good thing to do.
