Hi Lyle, This is a great idea. Most Brazilian journals are sustained by the voluntary support of researchers and PhD students. Typically, postgraduate programs or academic associations provide some resources to help cover technical maintenance costs. Perhaps a faculty or association could assist with these expenses? It might also be worth considering if AoIR could help.

Hi, all,
Catching up on the First Monday discussions... Seems there are a number of people interested in saving it. Would it be a good idea to host an online session over zoom with those interested? We could discuss potential ways forward, reaching out to current board, etc. It will require editors, but also hosting, web management, etc., so not without costs, even if time is volunteered.
I'm happy to host/set a zoom.
(apologies if the convo has moved on without me; I only get a daily digest)
Best, Lyle
