It's fine. Don't forget, pharmaceuticals sit on like 40 years of unpublished medical advancements because releasing them is "unprofitable".

I really think that a federated system for scientific publication could sense. Each "journal" is a separate instance, federated with all others. A department, a school, a research institute, whatever could host it. You manage submission, editing, peer review, etc. through the system.

What do you mean exactly by federated in this context?

What is getting federated in your ideal scenario?
