From: Martyn Rittman <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2018 15:48:28 +0200 Dear Francois, There is a page that was kept by Peter Suber at https://legacy.earlham.edu/~peters/fos/timeline.htm covering open access projects. It's not comprehensive, but I'm sure you will find a lot of useful information there. For MDPI, you can check the history page at http://www.mdpi.com/about/history, our first online journal was launched in 1996.
