A decentralised, evolvable network of platforms interconnected by open standards, and governed by the scientific community, is technically feasible. However, academic researchers remain tied to traditional journals not least because assessment of merit is tied to the venue of publication.

Concerted action by stakeholders needs to be combined with pluralistic experimentation on policies and interventions to further open science practices.
