I propose creating a new open access journal funded entirely through donations and foundation funding. The journal would be administered by a nonprofit. All work for the nonprofit would be strictly voluntary including editing and peer review. Costs would be limited to server hosting. Free services such as Medium and Gitlab/Github would be used as much as possible to keep costs down. In fact, early on, github pages could be used to keep all costs to near $0. If this worked, it could demonstrate the value of open science and open data (if data were required to be open as a condition of publication).","created_at":"2015-08-29T18:57:05.409Z","updated_at":"2016-05-14T05:24:30.799Z","zenodo_id":58449,"doi":"http://dx.doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.29992","subject":null,"tags":["open science","science communication","scientific journals"],"vote_count":2,"view_count":1,"score":2.1,"deleted":false,"muted":false,"tweeted":false,"attachment_file_name":null,"attachment_content_type":null,"attachment_file_size":null,"attachment_updated_at":null}]
