Addendum: In all, 2,697 journals will be rechecked–including all the xx and xm (but not xx2 or xm2) cases, and others where it seemed plausible that more 2025 articles would have been added. Chances are, a few of those 2,697 will have been removed from DOAJ.

]]>Well, there were taxes…but that wasn’t the reason.
The trackpad buttons on my aging notebook started getting sticky a few weeks ago–and last weekend, the right button seems to have broken. And somewhere in the process of trying to baby the keys along (I’ll get a new notebook, but preferably not mid-project), I did something a bur clumsily, and in the process deleted the 2025 column for a chunk of the spreadsheet. And discovered how helpful File History was: not at all. in this case.
So I’ve spent several days doing a partial rescan of that chunk, which I just finished. Some real-world stuff is also happening, but by Monday I should be back in business, finishing Week 15 somewhat belatedly. Best guess is that there are two weeks left for the first pass, so the first pass should be done around the end of the month. Then comes the second pass, the data massaging, and the books.
If you’re wondering: I had a Microsoft Optical Mouse lying around, which is now plugged in and replacing the trackpad and buttons (locked out in software). Not clear that it’s feasible to repair the buttons.

]]>NOTE: There will be a lot more “real life” slowdown at least between now and, say, April 15–some days with 100 journals, possibly some with none at all. At some point, it’s possible that my original target (book and uploaded spreadsheet ready by mid-June, Diamond book a few weeks later) may be in jeopardy, in which case I can either have the dates slip a few weeks or, alternately, post a “trial version” of the spreadsheet and then do the book.
