[Open-access] [open-science] Open Science Anthology published

Apologies for the continued derailment of this thread - congrats to the
starting announcement, the publication of the open science anthology.

The theoretical service I described does not embed scholarly articles in
software. It delivers such articles to consumers, via a method that is
implemented using software that I write, amongst other things.

This service performs a function, therefore it cannot be achieved without
effort. In return for expending the effort of creating and maintaining the
service, I require reimbursement - because if I cannot engage in fair trade
for my skills, I have no choice but to seek alternative ways to survive.

If nc clauses or sa clauses render my work more difficult, then I will earn
more money. As I already explained, the manufacture of scarcity serves to
increase profit. I will be forcibly engaged in unfair trade.

There are many people in the world capable of providing the theoretical
service I describe. When the objects to be delivered are unencumbered, and
when the functionality of the delivery method is freely replicable, we can
engage in free trade to come to a reasonable and mutually beneficial
agreement whereby the scholar receives the dissemination and accessibility
fundamental to their practice, and the service provider receives fair
remuneration for unpredatory dedication of their time and skills to the
practice of the scholar. Encumbrance serves only to reduce competition and
encourage monopoly.

As a scholar I wish to make my work as widely accessible and as widely
beneficial as possible, above all else. Secondly it would be nice to earn a
living by doing so, for example by being paid for performance of this art
to the benefit of a given community.

As a software developer I wish to use my skills to help people achieve
their goals, and to make a living in return for the time I spend doing so.

Neither of these require nc or sa. In fact they require no form of
copyright at all. The purpose of copyright is to enable profitability from
the act of copying. The purpose of intellectual property is to enable
saleability by attachment of ownership to ideas.

Both of these could, however, conveniently earn me extra income if I were
to start polluting the raw materials - scholarly articles and software -
and increasing scarcity.

So for me it is a simple question.

Do scholars wish to make their work as widely accessible as possible, as a
fundamental tenet of the scholarly practice?

If the answer to the above is yes, then I am in. Let's work out what is
required to do so, and get it done together as efficiently as possible. It
will be hard work for all of us, but sustainably rewarding.

If the answer is no, then I apologise in advance for getting rich whilst
being forced to take part in pointlessly over complicated software
development and service provision, serving only to support a community
willing to compromise fundamental tenets for the sake of convenience.
