The Australian Business Deans Council pulled their draft new journal ranking last week, now there’s a new draft of the draft

The first list was pulled because not all assessor recommendations were acted on (error not insubordination is said to be the cause.)  But last night a new version was being dissected by bizoids interested in who is up, down and staying the same in the market place of ideas.

Of the 2740 or so journals assessed, 137 were upgraded, 15 were downgraded and 130 were ranked for the first time, appearing since the last ranking, in 2013.
