Jan 30, 2019 at 11:30 comment added Lightness Races in Orbit "I would not but a time contingency on the copyright transfer that it expires if the issue is not published in the next few weeks." I couldn't parse this sentence. Would you be able to rephrase it?
Jan 30, 2019 at 8:12 comment added DonQuiKong @Kimball then let the universitys lawyers handle that. There's probably a way out in cases like this.
Jan 29, 2019 at 20:42 comment added Kimball There might be an issue with pulling the paper if the author already signed over the copyright/agreement to publish forms.
Jan 29, 2019 at 20:28 comment added StrongBad @Buffy I added some more suggestions about pulling the paper.

Jan 29, 2019 at 20:21 comment added Buffy Your "bet" is just a guess, of course. And pulling the paper keeps it unpublished for at least a while longer. Fine if you already have a good pub record and stuff in the pipeline otherwise. Less fine if not. Reacting with irritation to a journal, even when justified, does little to advance your own career. I can't say whether withdrawing is best, but I doubt you can either.
Jan 29, 2019 at 20:17 comment added StrongBad @Buffy yup, and I bet they keep saying that to the poor sap who submitted a paper in 2015.
Jan 29, 2019 at 20:16 comment added Buffy Publisher says it will be published in the next weeks. Without that assurance, I'd probably agree about pulling it. I think it is worth a chuckle, not a panic, actually.
