- All serious magazines make their articles publicly available some time after publishing it. The reason is that they can make more money off them if they "give" them to the public and increase their reputation, goodwill...in the public eyes.
- Everyone who works in science has to publish articles or they lose their researcher status. But oftentimes in our national magazines, these articles get printed, the authors get their points, a few readers read them and then they get hopelessly lost in the old physical issues of these magazines. Sometimes libraries have them, sometimes they don't.
- Offer national and foreign magazines that publish the articles, to post their content on an organized web page...where their and the authors name will be visible.
- Deal with all the legal (copyright) issues. Personally I would recommend a CC model of license with some modified conditions.
- Go through their legal forms and modify it for them.
- Post the articles on an organized and search-able page. (Optional: Use the dlib.si or other similar project as your database, maybe even wiki).
- Earn some revenue on each of these steps (get paid for the organization and project management), try to get governmental, EU and private sponsorship.
