Dear all,
We have published sessions summary, slides and audio from the First Open
Economics Workshop, which took place in Cambridge, UK last December
gathering 40 academic economists, data publishers and funders of economics
research, researchers and practitioners: *
I wonder if there's a way we could promote libre knowledge (which is freely
licensed and in free formats) over individuals just posting links to their
work.
Posting our PDFs is all fine and good, but the real way to honor Aaron
Swartz is to combat this pervasive institutional fecklessness and do
Sorry for sending three emails in a row, I hadn't updated my email address
so previous messages to the list were stuck in moderation and I just resent
them. Anyways...
Does anybody want to help me turn Wikipedia's list of OA journals into a
comparison using tables that show ?

Hi Kyra
For cross referencing or adding to to the Wikipedia list, you might find

Thanks for the crosspost. I've converted the list to tables and have an
example one at the top of the page.

Thanks for your interesting posts on this topic. I read the Berkeley blog
post with special interest – since I live in Northern California and my step

I think it should absolutely go on the wikipedia article in draft. I will
add a section to the tables for article numbers.
