I agree. We have to not only support open access but have to change the value system associated with publishing as well. I would prefer a document under Creative Commons rather than just a free copy. Anyway congratulations. Something is better than nothing. - - Sukhdev Singh. On Wed, Mar 19, 2008 at 8:57 PM, Atanu Garai/Lists <atanugarai.lists@gmail.com> wrote:
