I'm a supporter of open access of science to everyone. Hence I will only referee for journals that satisfy the open access guidelines of the public library of science. Basically, this means papers must be placed on the web (for free access to all) within a "reasonable" time of being published. I urge everyone to join in this movement. (An interesting blog and comment , pricing.) A similar argument (.pdf) can be applied to software.
Adi Wyner and I worked on a blog on politically incorrect statistics for awhile.
