Juan
Your concerns are noted.

Regarding the FOSSK4 Conference (details, including the Conference
Statement, are available at http://fossk.in/4/ ), I must point out
there was nothing 'undemocratic' about about the FOSSK4 Conference,
nor was there any instance of 'outside' intervention (although there
was a protracted discussion on such a possibility).

In the case of JFSFK, we had a public inauguration & launch a few
months back, where the initial panel of Editors were also announced.
It is up to this group, with the structure that was already shared
earlier, to run the Journal now, and build it up as a credible source
of information.
