6. Practical Steps for the Establishment of Electronic Review Boards
6.3. Establishment of status
Once a board is established, the reader's choice to use the service will be largely based upon their own experience of it. A review board has the same problems as new journals, namely credibility.

Of course, ultimately there could be a Review board of Review boards to help readers choose!
