Richard Poynder has published "North, South, and Open Access: Jeff MacKie-Mason Responds from California" in Open and Shut?.
Here's an excerpt:
This is the final part of an experiment in a matched interview process. It consists of Q&As with two OA advocates, one from the global North [Jeff MacKie-Mason, UC Berkeley's University Librarian and Chief Digital Scholarship Officer] and one from the global South [Mahmoud Khalifa, Library of Congress Cairo Office], along with their responses to each other’s Q&A. . . .
[MacKie-Mason] I'd like to clarify my position just a bit: I think journal flipping is the only practical way of achieving *widespread* (near-universal) open access in the near term. I do think we can make some, important but limited progress with other models, such as new overlay journals on green OA repositories, and transferring ownership of some journals from subscription-based publishers to academy (e.g., university) ownership.
