Springer improves Open Choice

Springer has improved the terms of its Open Choice program. First, open-choice authors may now retain copyright. Second, open-choice articles are released under a license which Springer says is identical to the Creative Commons Attribution-NoCommercial license.

(PS: Congratulations to Jan Velterop who, I presume, was behind these changes.)
