Here's why we think this is still important today:

But we'd love to continue that debate! What do you like about LiveCoMS, what made you publish with us or read an article? Or what can we do better, what is holding you off submitting your first manuscript?
Since then, we've published six volumes of peer-reviewed living documents, covering perpetually updated reviews, tutorials & software comparisons. Every article has its own GitHub repo for community discussion, and we're starting to publish 2nd versions with important scientific updates.
"Scientists are well aware that they seem to be getting a bad deal." www.theguardian.com/science/2017...
8 years ago, in response to this article, we wrote about the need for LiveCoMS, a diamond open access journal with no charge for submissions or for libraries: livecomsjournal.org/index.php/li...

In the London heat, dreaming of a chemistry journal where articles evolve (living, versionable, open). Has anyone tried F1000? I am curious what the experience is like #OpenScience #ChemSky
That's right - all articles are diamond open access and can be regularly updated!
