The managing editors and entire editorial board of Mathematical Logic Quarterly, a Wiley title, have resigned, citing "unilateral decisions" by the publisher "that affected the editorial process". "We do not believe that Wiley is currently providing an environment that allows the editors to do their editorial work according to the standards of the academic community and free from the negative influence of commercial and profit-oriented interests", the editors wrote in their resignation letter.

The editors have launched a new journal with a "diamond" open-access model, not charging fees to read or publish papers. The name of the new journal, ZML: Zeitschrift für Mathematische Logik und Grundlagen der Mathematik. Cambridge University Library will provide indexing, digital hosting and preservation, and assign an ISSN and DOIs to ZML’s papers, according to the letter announcing the journal’s launch. Some members of the editorial board are financing the journal’s management, typesetting and submission system.
