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

Thu Sep 7 00:33:06 CEST 2017

Hi all

Ping from DOAJ. With a deadline this time.

So, having just gone through the list archive, seems a majority wanted CC0, but could live with CC-BY-SA.

As should be abundantly clear by now, I don't particularly mind either way.

My only concern is that (a) we don't cause problems down the track and (b) we comply with their guidelines re legal transfer. Specifically, how does CC0 work with:

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 transfer requirement, or an indication of the rights holder for a published paper. This signals a lack of transparency in the authoring and publishing process. If you send me a link where this information can be found, I can update your DOAJ application.

Questions

1. So, what about author rights? Does anything else need to be specified? Or is CC0 a problem in this regard?

2. If its OK, how exactly do we phrase it?
"All the contents of JoPP are in the Public Domain (CC0) that is to say free of copyright restrictions around the world.
See https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ for more information on this license."

3. If its OK, Creative Commons have a mechanism to embed CC0 info in our site (I think). Do/can we do this?
See:
"CC0 Waiver

Dear Mathieu,

Have you made any progress on updating the Journal of Peer Production website to provide the information that DOAJ requires for inclusion in the directory? Please let me know by September 27 if you will be able to make these changes, or if you would like to withdraw your journal for inclusion in DOAJ.

Sincerely,

Rhonda

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.

Your application states that you do not have article processing charges (APCs) or article submission charges. However, the link you gave where this information can be found does not mention APCs or submission charges. In order to be included in DOAJ, you must explicitly state that you do not have such charges.

One of the requirements for entry into DOAJ is that your journal website must include an open access statement. The link provided on the application, http://peerproduction.net/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpeerproduction.net%2F&data=02%7C01%7Crmarker%40rutgers.edu%7C586805f5c2494b84d01e08d4e4f8a4c4%7Cb92d2b234d35447093ff69aca6632ffe%7C1%7C0%7C636385203967611400&sdata=JU47ebr8z71LdCIL6IcEvwe3Sx%2FsSxRY4DKe3xVGoqI%3D&reserved=0>, does not have a statement. I would like to suggest that you take a look at some of the journals that are currently 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<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.filmcriticismjournal.org%2Fabout.html&data=02%7C01%7Crmarker%40rutgers.edu%7C586805f5c2494b84d01e08d4e4f8a4c4%7Cb92d2b234d35447093ff69aca6632ffe%7C1%7C0%7C636385203967611400&sdata=EKhvqu9Cj560nJgs5WIXyG7d5zCrysp2mktlIdks5Wo%3D&reserved=0> Using such a statement would also fulfill another requirements for inclusion in DOAJ: stating your license or use terms for the reader.

Welcome to the Journal of Peer Production. The Journal of Peer Production seeks high-quality contributions from researchers and practitioners of peer production.

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 transfer requirement, or an indication of the rights holder for a published paper. This signals a lack of transparency in the authoring and publishing process. If you send me a link where this information can be found, I can update your DOAJ application.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
