Though from my understanding, it uses a TOPAZ framework http://www.plos.org/about/faq.html#topaz I haven't looked into it much, but it appears far more complex to deploy than Wordpress or Drupal. From the perspective of limited/non-funded journals, a PHP based platform is appealing as server hosting is relatively cheap. PLoS ONE certainly is impressive.

I've enjoyed dipping into it again, many years later. It was a seminal work by all of you. I've posted about this on my blog and, as I said on John H's blog, let me know if anything is amiss.

But it is not whole India whole things. Music is from a part of India as well as women and migration. If we look into migration then In India most of the people migrate from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. If we look women then they migrate from West Bengal of India mostly. Like this music basically from Maharashtra and UP. It is migration situation of music and women from India. It is great review.

And what's worse is how the Journal Editors simply passed it on to me. Scandalous! My article was rejected on the basis of this single review. Yes, it’s an appalling review.

]]> Comment on The conceit of Academic Peer Review by Anna Gough-Yates http://antibabel.wordpress.com/2007/09/11/the-conceipt-of-academic-peer-review/#comment-8 Anna Gough-Yates Sun, 16 Sep 2007 10:28:55 +0000 http://antibabel.wordpress.com/2007/09/11/the-conceipt-of-academic-peer-review/#comment-8 I am amazed at this Sanjay. Not only is it a vile review, but the fact that this is a rejection that seems to be based entirely on the fact that the author misunderstands and disagrees with your paper is outrageous! Surely journal articles are to provoke debate, not just to replicate the views of reviewers and editors? What a boring place the world would be (and reading this review, apparently is). I'd be tempted to write to the editors and complain, but of course, there are risks here too.....chin up and send it to a journal that will appreciate it..... I am amazed at this Sanjay.
