More on OA and peer review

Stevan Harnad, Premature Rejection Slip, Open Access Archivangelism, October 17, 2006. Excerpt:

Summary:  Richard Poynder's essay on peer review is thoughtful and stimulating but quite wrong! Peer review is like water-quality control: Everyone shouldn't have to risk doing it all for himself. (And it has nothing to do with OA, which is about making the filtered, quality-controlled water free for all.)

Comment. I read Richard's article differently.  As I read it, Richard never said that readers should have to do peer review on their own and neither did the open-review advocates whom he discussed without endorsing.  Nor did he find that OA intrinsically favored any particular model of peer review, as opposed to affording certain opportunities that some journals will seize and others will not.
