[GOAL] Re: a chronology about open access

[Pierre-Carl Langlais]

Hi,

That's nice. I would just add two important dates in-between the XVIIth
century and 1991:
*1886: Bern Convention acknowledges a "de facto" open access. According
to the art. 7, all articles in periodicals (including scientific
journals) can be freely reproduced unless the authors/editors
explicitely stated otherwise. That's merely a continuation of similar
provisions in bilateral treaties since the mid-XIXth century (and more
broadly of an ancient general tolerance for periodicals reprinting,
especially in scientific publishing).
*1908: the Berlin Congress withdraws this disposition. Copyright/authors
rights becomes the default standard — and open access
licenses/permission have to be explicitely stated.

I've put more details in here : http://scoms.hypotheses.org/409 (sorry
for my French…)
