Preprint for html submissions #10

Closed essepuntato closed 7 years ago

essepuntato commented 8 years ago

About: "Submitted papers have to be published as a pre-print before reviewing, so reviewers and everybody else are free to share submitted papers"

I think it would be useful to suggest few pointers to preprint servers that accept pure HTML submissions - I had some experience with arXiv and, even if they say to accept html, they really push you to have the PDF...

Can the right template and a fixed series of steps deliver a consistent PDF? Several command-line utilities generate PDF from HTML.

Well a way-round would be using ROCS, which is a converter for RASH documents into LaTeX, that can be installed on another existing and more Journal-appropriate server, if needed. There is no LaTeX->PDF step implemented there, but it could be added easily.

Otherwise, there is the option of using a fixed (and pretty standard) ODT template that can be, then, automatically converted into RASH and then to LaTeX by using ROCS (again).

We plan to make pre-prints available on the journal website as HTML. I rephrased this part a bit: http://datasciencehub.net/features.html

We probably can't enforce CC-BY for pre-prints, as authors of rejected papers might want to resubmit to a non-OA journal...
