I have helped start an open access journal before [1] so I'd be happy to give advice. But generally, I don't think that we need more journals.

Rather, let's make open access the journals that we have. This has been done in some communities. For instance, the high energy physics community created a coalition to use existing subscription money (and perhaps new funding) to pay for making journals open access [2]. I would be happy to help create and solicit library and grant funds for such a coalition, with a group of interested people. This would start from identifying a core list of journals.

     There isn't an obvious candidate, despite some of the amazing
    research that's been done, and the extreme transparency that
    allows much deeper work to be done on wiki communities in the future.

    Would some of the Wikipapers folks be interested in working on
    this?  I'm thinking of something like a law-review model where
    much peer review happens by young researchers that are more junior
    (professionally) than the submitted papers, but very very skilled
    at review and editorial technique.  Which fits our community as
    well as it does lawyers.

        Hi all;

        I like the journals that work under the same (or similar)
        principles of free knowledge projects, a.k.a. open-access
        journals.

        I would like to publish some paper regarding to wikis in that
        kind of OA publications, do you have any recommendation?

        I found First Monday, which is peer-reviewed and OA, but it is
        not indexed in ISI. Any more suggestions?

        Thanks.

        Regards,
