[JoPP-Public] Fw: Your journal application to DOAJ: Journal of Peer Production

Thu Aug 17 07:01:22 CEST 2017

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?

>> Dear Dr. O’Neil,

>> I am one of the volunteer Associate Editors at Directory of Open Access

>>
>> Your application states that you do not have article processing charges (

>> you do not have such charges.
>>
>>
>>
>> One of the requirements for entry into DOAJ is that your journal website

>> 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.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Your application also stated that the author does not hold the copyright
>> without restrictions, and does not retain publishing rights without
>> restrictions. However, I could not find any information about the copyright

>> I look forward to hearing from you soon.
