The non-profit organization backing Quantum and ensuring its long term viability has been officially approved by the responsible Austrian authorities.
The non-profit goes under the name “Verein zur Förderung des Open Access Publizierens in den Quantenwissenschaften” (Association for the promotion of open access publishing in quantum science) and it will become the holder of all assets, such as the domain and bank account, that are necessary to run Quantum.
As Quantum strives to make is internal workings as open and transparent as possible, the constitution of the non-profit organization is made public in both the legally binding German version, and an English translation.
We will now proceed with setting up a bank account, applying for a ISSN and DOI prefix with the aim of opening for submissions in November.
