Summary:

I'm happy to announce that my book on OA (Open Access, MIT Press, 2012) is now OA. The book came out in mid-June last year, and the OA editions came out one year later, right on schedule. My thanks to MIT Press.

The paperback edition is still available as well.
I'm working on my own OA edition of the book, which will incorporate my updates and supplements. Meantime, all the updates and supplements are themselves OA. When my edition is ready, I'll blog it here and link to it from the update page itself.
