The New Yorker has picked up on two recent stories already familiar to
liblicense-l readers:  the Wroclaw experiment in promoting the
credentials of a non-existent scientist for service on journal
editorial boards and the termination of Jeffrey Beall's list of
predatory publishers.  I don't see there's anything new in this piece,
but the New Yorker is a bully pulpit and the topics will surely get
wider discussion now.
