Jill mentioned you were discussing OJS and I thought I’d check in. To build a little bit on what Stephen said, my understanding from other JITP members is that the platform at the time was very difficult to manage given the size of JITP’s editorial collective and the turnover of issue editors.

I don’t know what their titles in French were/are, nor whether Nohow On existed as a collection in French before being assembled in English.
