I meant the open publishing - or more specifically, open review. This way,
pretty much anything can get an airing but if it's dross you can see it get
ripped to shreds by the reviewers. The authors get to respond to the
criticisms, too (which doesn't always happen elsewhere, even in private).
Conferences have essentially no quality control: it is virtually unheard-of for
the EGU to actually reject any submission.
