Excerpt: "... we take no pleasure in the fact that researchers feel oppressed by the need to publish in the 'top journals'. We endorse efforts to create systems that reach beyond the crudeness of the impact factor — systems that make transparent the citations and other effects of papers, and that record impacts of scientists' other work, such as their contributions to databases and the hard slog of peer review. We will develop our own systems to make such subtler credits easier to account for, and will collaborate with others working towards that same end".
