A quick (and inadequate) reader's guide for open-access legal information startups

After yesterday’s #calicon13 session on open access operations, I decided that it might be nice to throw together a quick resource guide for folks thinking about going into the business.  This is pathetically  inadequate, but a start.  Please feel free to suggest other sources in the comments, and in any case I’ll be adding more stuff over the next day or two.
