Good Afternoon List Friends.
This is a link to a provocative letter I found this afternoon in an
online magazine, sponsored by biomed central, called "Open Access Now"
Those involved in research and publishing papers may find it
interesting. Others will probably wish to delete :o)

The author titles his letter:
Various ideas about scientific publishing
Etienne Joly

email : atn@cict.fr
The lead editorial in the online magazine states:
"One of the goals we had when we launched Open Access Now was to
stimulate debate about Open Access within the scientific community and
to provide a forum for an exchange of views. We have been delighted to
receive a steady stream of emails containing feedback and comments."
The letter from Etienne Joly was in response to this challenge. It
includes a number of novel suggestions.
