Why does it take longer to publish a paper than
doing the actual research ?


Why ?



Have you ever received the latest issue of the Journal
with your article on it...   and you have had trouble
remembering what the paper was about  ?



Have you ever get a revision for a paper by the time
the graduate student has already get her degree and
left the lab ?



Does somebody remember that "HTML" was conceived at the
European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) for sharing
scientific information on particle physics  ?

         http://www.w3.org/History.html

and that was done in 1980 !



Why not just send the documets on the mail ?

mmm, maybe they want them... fast ?





IMAGINE:


   Imagine a scientific journal where you can submit your
   article at 6:00 pm and your colleagues worldwide can read
   it on-line the next day at 8:00 am.
