[GOAL] Re: The Qualis and the silence of the Brazilian researchers

[Jean-Claude Guédon]

If some academics find it difficult publicly to denounce what obviously
are rogue journals, others obviously will. It is only a question of
perseverance. Furthermore, we need academics only to endorse journals
that they know to be legitimate. Those without the ability to have five
open sponsors will simply stand out in the list (that for colleagues who
might be scared of being sued).

Besides, Mr. Tuffani, all you have to do is publish the list of the 200
doubtful titles and ask who would be willing to put his/her good name
behind any of these journals. If it turns out that some are actually
legitimate, we shall soon know. They will have no difficulty in
garnering five sponsors who can be easily identified and queried as to
their decision to support a particular title.
