<p>Hi all</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>A French colleague inquired whether JoPP was archived in any databases including the "easier to get into" Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). This seems like a pretty good fit for us. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">I checked it out and it does not
seem too bad so I'm willing to give it a go.</span></p>
<p><a href="https://doaj.org/application/new" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk418690" previewremoved="true">https://doaj.org/application/new</a><br>
<br>
</p>
<p>However there are a few questions I'm not sure about. <span style="font-size: 12pt;">I've copied them all below but the most important issues IMO are PDFs and copyright. </span></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>PDF</p>
<p>We used to have a PDF generator for articles. This broke and was meant to be repaired...? This absence limits our ability to be picked up by search engines and archived in other databases.</p>
<p>@Peter (and maxigas): is there a solution in sight?<br>

<p>PDFs would feature this text: </p>
<p class="p1">"This work is licensed under a Creative Commons</p>
<p class="p1">Attribution–NonCommercial–ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License"</p>
<p class="p1"><br>
</p>
<p class="p1">Now the only indication we have about copyright is "<span style="font-size: 12pt;">All the contents of this journal are in the public domain" (on the front page) which is a bit vague. </span></p>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">So should we change this text to the CC licence? Any reason not to?</span><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Finally there are some questions at the end about author ownership - I assume we give all rights to authors?</div>
<div>@Our legal experts (Angela, Steve...): any thoughts on this?</div>
<div><br>
