Re: Blog vs. Peer Review Final Report: Lessons Learned

I would suggest that producing a paper designed for print only, 
in a form which has been codified in a print environment and 
which is supposed to be self contained is very different from the 
wider way in which scholars now interact in conferences and in 
seminars not to mention the informal area now much wider than it 
used to be.
