Hi,

we have got fantastic news!  MalariaWorld has received funding from the
Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research to further develop an Open
Access 2.0 journal: the MalariaWorld Journal<http://www.malariaworld.org/mwj>.
This followed their call for proposals to develop new Open Access journals
and bring more scientific articles in the public domain. This journal is
already publishing at a slow rate, but with the help of this funding it can
develop into a full-fledged peer-reviewed scientific journal. The journal
is absolutely @ccess compliant and reading and publishing are zero-pay. We
can do this because MalariaWorld Journal is run under a new publication
model with minimal costs.
We think that this the first open access journals run by a @ccess community
for the community. All in line with the ideas of the @ccess initiative on
open access and open science. What do you think?
