      abstract     = {Replacing traditional journals with a more modern solution
                      is not a new idea. Here, we propose ways to overcome the
                      social dilemma underlying the decades of inaction. Any
                      solution needs to not only resolve the current problems but
                      also be capable of preventing takeover by corporations: it
                      needs to replace traditional journals with a decentralized,
                      resilient, evolvable network that is interconnected by open
                      standards and open-source norms under the governance of the
                      scholarly community. It needs to replace the monopolies
                      connected to journals with a genuine, functioning and
                      well-regulated market. In this new market, substitutable
                      service providers compete and innovate according to the
                      conditions of the scholarly community, avoiding sustained
                      vendor lock-in. Therefore, a standards body needs to form
                      under the governance of the scholarly community to allow the
                      development of open scholarly infrastructures servicing the
                      entire research workflow. We propose a redirection of money
                      from legacy publishers to the new network by funding bodies
                      broadening their minimal infrastructure requirements at
                      recipient institutions to include modern infrastructure
                      components replacing and complementing journal
                      functionalities. Such updated eligibility criteria by
                      funding agencies would help realign the financial incentives
                      for recipient institutions with public and scholarly
                      interest.},
