From Bue:

Just today a new free 'solidarity university' was announced in Vienna in a squatted university building as a spillover from the general student protests there. They have already established a lot of international links and seem very enthusiastic about the project, though so far I haven't found any sources who are able to clearly formulate what their ideas and plans are. But of course this is something completely new.

By the way I recommend the edu-factory mail-list, which has all sorts of stuff around global university politics, including news, manifestoes and heated debates.
