Whwrhwe electronic publishing will be cheaper or more expensive than print on paper, at least in the near term, is an important underlying question. Exorcise everything having to do with going into paper, from the bottom up. Although the two are not entirely comparable, and the paper one undeniably still has a much larger submission rate and annual page count, the true costs of the electronic one are an order of magnitude lower even making allowances for this. It seems to me that this is an idea whose time has just arrived. I'm sending this to both, as I'd value your comments.
Life is short.
Forget about electronic publishing. And then nature will take its course. This IS subversive. Paper publishers, by the way, are, quite understandably, looking for much less radical solutions. I have no animus against paper publishers.
