The Buzz Surrounding R. Preston McAfee's "No Revisions" Option 
You may have already heard of or read about EI Editor Preston McAfee's innovative no-revision submission policy. But you may not know that this new option for manuscripts submitted to Economic Inquiry was the topic of conversation at the recent AEA journal editors' breakfast held during the ASSA meetings in New Orleans. It's also a topic of discussion on Steven D. Levitt's Freakonomics blog. If you haven't already read about it, you'll want to check it out and see what the buzz is all about.
