From: Kevin Smith <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2013 09:41:44 +0000 I hope I am more of a pragmatist (one could say cynic) than to commit myself wholeheartedly to only one option. I am generally in favor of whatever will further progress in particular circumstances. But my main point was than even "real" mandates, whatever that means, for Green OA (like the Harvard license, after which Duke's is modeled) don't force authors to publish in specified journals. Authors can still submit to any journal they think is right for them; they are just also giving a non-exclusive license to the institution to deposit the final version of the article in a repository.
