I was pleasantly surprised to find out about the fee-free Open Access under the Read & Publish agreement between my institution, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, and The Company of Biologists. Together with the absence of publication fees and the high reputation of Development in the field, this makes it an ideal journal for scientists like myself who publish some of their research after retirement and therefore no longer have any funds available for this purpose.
