Dear all,
As I'm sure many of you are aware, recently around 1100 researchers from around the world signed a complaint regarding Elsevier and their role in the European Commission's Open Science Monitor.
Now, the Directorate-General of Research and Innovation, Jean-Eric Paquet, has provided a full response, available online here: https://zenodo.org/record/1443395#.W7Ta22j0lPZ (posted with permission).
There is also a version here that can be annotated using Hypothes.is:

At this stage, while much clarity has been provided into the process and situation, there are still many apsects which remain unclear or unresolved. Thus, I invite you all to participate in the ongoing discussion by annotating the response, sharing with your colleagues, and contributing your own views and comments. It might be the case that a follow up response is required, depending on how satisfactory the community regards this letter.
Best, Jon
