[MOBY-dev] Fwd: PLoS ONE Decision [07-PONE-RA-01200R1]

[Pieter Neerincx]

Hi Mark,

Bummer, PLoS One looked like a great new magazine, but their review  
process is a bad joke... not very professional at best :(.

I think it would be best for the BioMOBY article if it will be  
published in an Open Access magazine, but apart from that I don't  
have preferences.

Cheers,

Pi
