CBC's Indepth: Same Sex marriage - mostly Canadian focus, but also includes a world timelime. Also has links to CBC coverage of same-sex marriages in those provinces where it is now legal.

For Oregon, Basic Rights Oregon is one of the primary litigants and keeps up a good info stream.

Other Portland media might be b!X's Portland Communique. It's simply the best tracking blog of any local Portland issue and he did a great job on following all the angles in the Oregon cases.
