Affiliate Professor in Electronics and Computer Science at University of Southampton, UK on the Open Access Mandate by the University of California:
Yes, there's a flaw in the University of California Open Access (OA) mandate ["Open Contradictions," Editorial, The Daily Californian, 12 Aug 2013], and, yes, it has to do with the fact that U of C authors can opt out of compliance with the mandate.
