This post is a public response to Debat and Babini's article Plan S in Latin America: A precautionary note and invitation to participate in open peer review.
In brief: Latin America has long been a leader in open access. Debat and Babini are experts without peers; their article should be read carefully by open access policy-makers not only in Latin America, and those involved with PlanS in Europe, but everywhere else, too. Latin America: long-time peerless leader in open access: https://wordpress.com/post/sustainingknowledgecommons.org/3463 Should the authors desire a full open peer review, it would be an honour for me to undertake this work, under the conditions explained in the following post (e.g. my work must be OA with ARR copyright - no CC license, with explanation): https://wordpress.com/post/sustainingknowledgecommons.org/3463 This has inspired me to update a 2005 post (building on prior work of Harnad and others) on open peer review, with ideas, links and an invitation to participate in experimentation and discussion, which can be found here: https://wordpress.com/post/sustainingknowledgecommons.org/3463 best, Dr. Heather Morrison Associate Professor, School of Information Studies, University of Ottawa Professeur Agrégé, École des Sciences de l'Information, Université d'Ottawa Principal Investigator, Sustaining the Knowledge Commons, a SSHRC Insight Project sustainingknowledgecommons.org heather.morri...@uottawa.ca https://uniweb.uottawa.ca/?lang=en#/members/706
