Apologies for three glaring omissions! Here they are, and they are 
among the most important of all:

(1) JISC Open Access Briefing Paper (Swan):
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/uploaded_documents/JISC-BP-OpenAccess-v1-final.pdf 
    and here in several languages:
http://www.keyperspectives.co.uk/www/openaccessarchive/briefingpapers.html

(2) JISC OA Self-Archiving Author Survey (Swan & Brown):
http://eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/11006/

and

(3) JISC Technical Report on Central vs. Institutional Archiving (Swan et al.)
http://eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/11000/
