Signals are an important part of the JoPP peer review process. They are intended to widen the scope of publishable articles by placing the reputational cost of publishing an imperfect article on authors, rather than on the journal.<\/p>\n

S\u00e9samath is an interesting project and it is nice to see its history documented here.<\/p>\n This article provides timely insight to contributors in open projects, beyond software. The authors made a significant effort to improve the language quality and to restructure their article to increase readability and clarity. However, their focus, teachers\u2019 motivations for contributing to open textbooks in connection with organisational changes and bureaucratisation processes, could be clarified. The article lacks more recent work and still features incomplete references.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Signals are an important part of the JoPP peer review process.
