By "venture" I don't mean for-profit: absolutely nothing we were building was going to be for-profit. It'd be all open content.
I abandoned the project well before the infrastructure was ready for prime time: the tenure clock beckoned.
- chris_wot 11y agoI totally understand :-) What do you think of Wikiversity's Journal of Medicine? It's a decent stab at a reputable open journal: http://www.wijoumed.org/ http://www.wijoumed.org/
- SeanLuke 11y agoIt looks interesting but a bit spooky. A real editorial board would have dozens of action editors. They only require a single review, and it's not entirely clear what the process is. They also permit rubriq, which has ill-defined measures for review quality and payment, kind of amazing given that it's wading into an area of very problematic ethics. This doesn't feel like a major player yet, but what do I know, I'm not in medicine. In my field, reputable open journals would be things like PLOS One, JMLR, and JAIR.
