I've not been following the discussion on self-archiving too closely so the
following question may have been covered.

Has any academic expressed a worry about the possible reaction of a journal
publisher if they are made aware that a 'pre-print' version of an article
has been made available on the web? A colleague suggested to me that he
would be anxious about self-archiving if there was any chance of the
publisher refusing to publish the paper version.

Best wishes
