I am not an expert on copyright, but feel strongly about some implications of what we are discussing. To outline briefly my politics: As a Marxist, I am all for open access, but find some of the free culture positions rather problematic, particularly those ones that are rooted in liberal theory (Stallman, Lessig, Benkler etc). One of these positions is the idea that academic should not only make available their work for free, but also make it available in a format does not respect authors rights in that it does not care about attribution. In a neoliberal climate that massively devalues academic labour it is not a wise strategy to devalue academic labour even further and to do so voluntarily. Therefore I do not support copyright politics, that contribute to new levels of proletaristion of academic labour. But this is not just about politics, it also about the future orientation of this journal. I would be very hesitant to publish in a journal that invites and encourages the use of my labour without appropriation. And I have a feeling I am not the only academic with such a view. So to go for PD, and for that matter for CC0 has imho the long-term effect that academics will stay away from JOPP and that the reputation of JOPP as a journal with high-quality academic rigour could seriously suffer. My preference would be CC-BY-SA best, Andreas On Sat, Aug 19, 2017 at 10:44 AM, <jopp-public-request(a)lists.ourproject.org> wrote: > Send JoPP-Public mailing list submissions to > jopp-public(a)lists.ourproject.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/jopp-public > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > jopp-public-request(a)lists.ourproject.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > jopp-public-owner(a)lists.ourproject.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of JoPP-Public digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Hi Yeah, that's it. I know that Shima is registered with DOAJ too and I assume that its text was acceptable so perhaps we can appropriate?

Well, in my experience I've not heard of any uni enforcing its rights and restricting authors (I'm sure it's happened to someone, somewhere though :P). Sorry Mathieu, I'm, a little unclear on what you meant by 'now it just says "all pubs in public domain"' - what says that? JoPP?

Hi Mathieu What's JoPP's current arrangement with copyrights - is there a current arrangement? I'm guessing that authors don't agree to anything when they submit an article to JoPP. We'll need to implement something for the future - but also need to work on what to do with work that's already been published. To add complexity to the situation it's usual for universities to own the IP in academics' work. I spoke to a colleague who manages an online journal that is registered with DOAJ, and their (c) statement is quite brief but might provide a template? http://shimajournal.org/index.php cheers steve On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 11:46 AM, Mathieu ONeil <mathieu.oneil(a)anu.edu.au> wrote: > Hi all, again > > > To help move things along here are the two places on the journal site > where text could be amended.

Hi everyone Response from DOAJ FYI. I guess we need to be more explicit in our language. Does anyone have thoughts on the below? cheers Mathieu ________________________________ From: Rhonda Marker <rmarker(a)rutgers.edu> Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2017 8:24 To: Mathieu ONeil Cc: Rhonda Marker Subject: Your journal application to DOAJ: Journal of Peer Production Dear Dr. O’Neil, I am one of the volunteer Associate Editors at Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). I am currently processing your application for Journal of Peer Production to be included in DOAJ.

Film Criticism has a brief, clear statement about open access that also describes how readers can use the content: http://www.filmcriticismjournal.org/about.html Using such a statement would also fulfill another requirements for inclusion in DOAJ: stating your license or use terms for the reader.

Last Days - Training School, Madeira, 20-24 November - "On the collaborative economy. Learning from critical perspectives"
by Maurizio Teli 09 Aug '17

09 Aug '17

Dear all there are still two days to apply for the Training School "On the collaborative economy. Learning from critical perspectives" that will take place in Madeira from the 20th to the 24th of November. The TS combines contributions from design, social sciences, and literature, in an effort to provide PhD students and early career researchers with the coordinates to frame research and design projects related to the collaborative economy in a wide perspective. It does so by mixing lectures by established academics and hands-on activities to critically interrogate platform capitalism and to learn about research strategies for investigating and promoting the collaborative economy. Lecturing and hands-on activities will be complemented by group discussions, moderated by instructors, on the research projects of the participants in order to stimulate a lively intellectual exchange among the participants. Participants coming from countries participating in the COST Action CA16121, "From Sharing to Caring: Examining Socio-Technical Aspects of the Collaborative Economy", whose applications for participation are accepted, may receive financial contribution in the form of a COST Trainee Grant up to €550 per person (for a maximum of 26 participants). This will support the cost of travel, accommodation and meals. There are no participation fees. Deadline for application is August 11th, 2017. You can find more information at this webpage: https://sharingandcaringcostaction.wordpress.com/activities/training-school… Early-career researchers are encouraged to apply. Anybody else is invited to share this email with anybody who can be interested. Best Maurizio -- Maurizio Teli, PhD Assistant Professor Madeira Interactive Technologies Institute Caminho de Penteada, 9020-105 Funchal, Madeira, Portugal Phone: +351 925 281 138
