Abstract: Three years ago, the Gold and Green Roads to Open Access were 
viewed as complementary strategies, with repositories having the potential 
of gradually behaving more like journals, and vice versa. Since then, 
repositories and journals have been progressing on parallel tracks. Re-
examining the situation, the reasoning suggested in 2004 appears still 
valid. Simultaneously, a knowledge economy has made of science a strategic 
resource. The developing world is essentially invited to contribute to 
world science with little or no regard to the development of an autonomous 
scientific capacity. Open Access, in this context, takes a new meaning 
with one objective to help development of local and autonomous scientific 
capacity. However, to do so, mixing and matching repositories with 
journals is needed. Brazil exemplifies this type of development and shows 
how the Green and Gold roads can mix and match.
