Peter The RCUK policy on this is very clear - OA means CC-BY. The existing policy will be clarified by specifically stating that Open Access includes unrestricted use of manual and automated text and data mining tools. Also, that it allows unrestricted re-use of content with proper attribution

At the Wellcome Trust we also believe that fair use is not enough if the benefits of text and data-mining - with its promise of discovering new knowledge - are to be fully realised. Consequently, as a condition of paying an open access fee, the Trust requires publishers to licence these articles

My reading of the RCUK policy is somewhat different to Stevan's. In short, I see clear parallels between what Finch recommended (disclosure - I sat on the Finch Working Group) and the RCUK policy. Specifically: · Finch recommended gold OA and flexible funding arrangements to cover

I don't think this quite addresses your question, but I note that PNAS charges an $1800 publication fee. See http://www.pnas.org/site/authors/fees.xhtml . This is not an APC (that is a separate $1350 fee), or anything to do with colour and page charges (which are also charged separately).
