[Funder support, and lack of support, for Plan S]

"FWIW I’ve tabulated and coded the replies to your Plan S questions. My worksheet is attached. Obviously, this kind of work doesn’t withstand scientific scrutiny---coding is very subjective, and given that not every respondent provided a detailed reply, it’s possible (even likely) that proportions get exaggerated. But based solely on the respondents who provided detailed replies---37 out of 60 total---it looks like funder support for Plan S may be softer than your original tally suggests. That is, in your original tally, one might reasonably conclude that roughly half of respondents have either signed Plan S (12 of 60 surveyed), are aligning their policies with Plan S (3 of 60), or are philosophically aligned with Plan S (16 of 60); as well, one might conclude that those who are aware of Plan S but haven’t formulated a position yet are still “neutral” (20 of 60). However, when you code all these replies, it’s clear that more respondents oppose Plan S than support it (and that only about 35% of respondents strongly support Plan S, which is roughly the same percent in OSI who support Plan S as written or with minor changes, so this seems consistent)...."
