Stevan is quite right in respect of ROAR being the best consistent source of
such data.
In the case of Australia and New Zealand I can do better by pointing you to
the AuseAccess wiki which has accurate, up-to-date information on the
current situation in those countries; including some "plans". It includes
some repositories not yet registered with ROAR. See
http://leven.comp.utas.edu.au/AuseAccess/pmwiki.php?n=Activity.AustralianRep
ositories and
http://leven.comp.utas.edu.au/AuseAccess/pmwiki.php?n=Activity.NewZealand
especially.
Note also the 26+ thesis repositories in the ADT program.
