Mr. Davila, The list is published from March 9 — accessible through the same link in my report indicated here by Mr. Beall — and has been updated today. Now are at least 235 predatory journals in Qualis.
http://mauriciotuffani.blogfolha.uol.com.br/publishers-predatorios-e-seus-periodicos-no-qualis/ Auditing and supervision are precisely what is not allowed by all the publishers in that list. In all my posts and articles I have emphasized the need for such transparency. And I do not need to explain this by defining OA. My focus is not to attack OA, but also is not make OA advocacy.
