Hi!

Another voice from the scientific community calling for free access to
scientific results:

	http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/en/1/awtvispolpub.html

Actually it becomes a considerable choir now :-) .


Have you read the Welcome trust's economic justification? I don't think
this is in line with oekonux at all; it's screwing the researchers by
passing all the costs to them...


I remember vaguely I read something like this, yes. However, in a
quick scan of the page I can't find it (any more?). Would you
recommend removing the link?


I find it nice that this development is totally in line with Oekonux
theory ;-) .


I'd like to stress that I think the general *development* is in line
with Oekonux theory. If Oekonux theory says something like "Creative
mental work can be done better in a Free manner - just like in Free
Software" then it is in line with that theory that more and more areas
where creative mental work is done move to the Free Production mode.


						Mit Freien Grüßen
