Just for the people who don't know: there are many journals with the
look and feel of scientific journals, and overblown titles such as
"International journal of advanced things" that publish anything,
literally anything, just to have content (and sometimes the author has
to pay for it).
It is not specific to computer networks, there are a lot of them in
biology, for instance, allowing unscrupulous or desperate people to
inflate their list of publications <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publish_or_perish>
Don't fall in the trap: anyone can publish anything on the Internet
and these journals are contentless.
Maybe we have to ask whether it is still a good thing that anybody can
publish anything as an Internet-Draft. Yes, IPv10 is quite a singular
case, but this is already n-th iteration ...
