Negotiating with publishers for immediate self-archiving

I'm surprised this was so easy.

After that everything was simple. I logged in to my zenodo.org account and uploaded the author’s copy of the manuscript. As a result, anyone searching for the article on google scholar will find the publisher’s version requesting 34.95 EUR for pdf access, and right next to it a link to exactly the same article freely available via Zenodo. That’s it! Nice and clean!
