Nothing much seems to have changed in this new version. It still keeps
misrepresenting Green OA self-archiving as if it were unrefereed
self-publishing rather than the self-archiving of refereed journal
articles. Wishing it were so does not make it so. The prior critiques of
Joe's position continue to be valid -- and to be overlooked by Joe:
