International Journal of Science and Technology is a pay-to-publish
e-journal. It shouldn't be confused with
The International Journal of Science and Technology
(http://www.journalofsciences-technology.org) which is a different
pay-to-publish e-journal.
International Journal of Science and Technology
features in Jeffrey Beall's list of predatory
journals at http://scholarlyoa.com/individual-journals/ .
Recently, there has been a rash of these pay-to-publish e-journals.
For an account of practices of one of them see

http://wp.auburn.edu/ash/?p=94

I know s.m.r. has little traffic these days, but I don't think
it should act as an unpaid publicist for pay-to-publish
journals unless such a journal has established a sound reputation.

What should be our criterion for publishing such announcements?
Coverage by MathSciNet?
