OASPA responds to submission prank in OA journal

[Caroline Sutton <caroline.sutton@co-action.net>]

The Open Access Scholarly Publisher's Association (OASPA) has 
responded to the recent prank involving the submission - and 
reported acceptance - of a computer-generated paper to The Open 
Information Science Journal, published by Bentham Science.

As noted in the blog piece, one of the key incentives behind 
establishing OASPA was a desire to ensure high standards among 
Open Access publishers.
