In a recent blog post, these two initiatives were discredited by Jeffrey
Beall. In the post, Beall compared the two publishing platforms to favelas,
resulting in a mean-spirited insult to both favela dwellers on the one
hand, and SciELO and Redalyc on the other. *Rather than maligning these
initiatives, they should be held up as examples of best practice for the
rest of the world.*
