Seems a bit of a red herring sorry folks - came back to say it is not anything
new and not all journals just the traditional subscription journals -

That was a bit unclear and attendees at the event thought they were announcing
something new and liberal. Not sure why they seemed so excited about it.

I have just been on a panel with Tom Merriweather of Sage this AM. He says
they are going zero embargo for journals.

Review of Sage Open access database in 2019 shows that the number of their open
access journals is growing, they are still following article processing charge
model and their payment model is still pricey.
Sage currently publishes 1,200 journals. Of these, 200 journals (about 17%) are
fully open access. Compared to the last year?s data, there is a net increase of
41 open access journals (26% increase) published by Sage. Out of all open
access journals, 185 journals (92 percent) have publication fees, 14 journals
have no publication charges and 1 journal lacks the information whether it has
processing fee or not.
Some journals from the previous years ceased publication and Sage has removed
them from their database, but only a few of them are accessible through
clockss.org archive.
