Would folks be interested in having a video/voice chat to collaborate and discuss how this initiative could scale? It seems like multiple parties are very interested, including me!
I'd be happy to send around a Doodle to find time for a meeting.

Federico, this sounds amazing!
Thanks.
I want to offer the help of the Open Access Button request system here:
[...]
I'd love to work with you to figure out how we can help here, as it would be a shame for us to duplicate this!
Sure. In fact I reused some of your learnings, so you already contributed to my campaign.

From https://github.com/OAButton/discussion/issues/587 I got the impression you wouldn't be able to sustain my requests for 224k DOIs at once, so I figured I'd try to add some additional capacity with WMIT resources at least for this initial test of mine. In the short term (September), if some of you have spare cycles, I could use your help in drafting the next emails and replying to support requests.
In the long term, if we want something stable as suggested by Dario (or indeed John < https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/accelerating-open-access-adoption-john-dove
),
I agree we should go through some permanent help desk like the OAbutton, ideally with some resources/support from SPARC, JISC, OpenAIRE or whoever is interested in directly supporting green OA beyond specific borders.

P.s: I've removed from Cc some addresses which I believe are already in the list, to avoid making these messages always go into moderation.
