May I suggest adding another qualifier to your question - "traditional,
reputable, high quality, and commercially viable (profitable)".

We've been asked the following question:

* Are there any traditional, reputable, high quality journals "out there"
that have been converted from previous subscriber access to open access?  If
so, what are some examples, how did they transition, and how are they now
funded?

One that came to mind was OUP's Progress in Theoretical Physics, which
became Progress in Theoretical and Experimental Physics as of 2013,
sponsored by the Physical Society of Japan.  The SCOAP3 journals will
convert from subscription to APC based in 2014.

Anything else?  There must be lots!

Answers most appreciated.  Cheers, Ann Okerson
