Hello Mitchell,
Sadly I won't be at the AsCA. I would have really liked to but had no budget, nor an invitation to then go seek a budget. I greatly enjoyed my visit to Kolkata in 2000.
I could be available by Skype on dec 7th, if you deem useful. If you could give me advance notice of questions you would like answering that would be efficient.
The reply from Andrew Allen was as Brian and I expected namely reflecting the new obsession with high impact leading therefore to a larger number, than reasonable, of rejections. Plus loose many of my newly formed data friends ! Bad for me, bad for IUCr.
I am inclined therefore to withdraw the proposal to JAC as the centralised focus for the Rovinj articles. IUCr journals is going to be anti community anti capacity building in future, new territory for us all. As an aside :- i used to spend many hours as editor
helping relatively inexperienced, low impact, authors with their submissions. I firmly believe they benefitted from that help but today those articles, polished, but lower impact would never get the light of day nor in future would those authors have that
kind of help to move forward in their science career growth. This will all have a serious effect on the global geography that IUCr journals will encompass in future.
Yours sincerely,
John
