It would help me to understand the reasons, beyond vanity, that
someone would not want their draft published, as well as the reasons
that the journal would not want to mandate publications of drafts, if
reasons for the latter are different.
If, for example, there is a case where publishing the draft would
inadvertently reveal private information about the author or the
subjects of a study, then I can understand either redacting or not
publishing a draft.
Publishing as an option isn't really any different than most journals,
which permit you to do pre-publication archiving, and a smaller number
that permit post-publication archiving.
If part of the mission of the journal is to encourage peer-processes
that are open and transparent, the publication of drafts seems pretty
inherent to that process. Barring that, I would second Toni's
suggestion of mandating either drafts or a short explanation of why
the author is opting out of an open draft.
Would requiring draft publication reduce the number of submissions?
Yes, I suspect it would--at least initially. Would requiring draft
publication increase the number of readers and the ways in which the
journal was used, I feel certain it would.
Best,
Alex

Hi all
I agree - making draft publication mandatory is too much, better to
strongly encourage it. I will post the drafts for the first issue in the way
discussed before and include a header along the lines - "not for quotation,
for background only".
cheers,
Mathieu

Hi All,
On the question of encouraging the publication of drafts of
submissions or
making such publication mandatory with possible exceptions, I
would go with
encouraging not making it mandatory.
The authors can declare this when they submit in the first
instance whether
they want it published or not.
Cheers
Athina

OK, well I think this could be resolved by a clear
hierarchisation of
available data for each research paper:
- download article
- download signals
- download background information (original draft submission
and reviewers
reports)
this seems like a very good solution
