Thanks for the example. Reading their editorial material it is quite clear that: 1. Their problems came out of political difference between the psycologists and the doctors 2. There is no indication that the peer-review aspects caused any problems at all. 3. There are now many successful e-journals with post-publication peer review, notably Psycoloquy 4. This does not touch upon the review-board/e-journal debate.
