@whedon invite @usethedata as editor

:wave: @usethedata - are you available to take on an additional paper currently? @bstabler would be the obvious editor to take this paper but he's currently unable to edit for JOSS.

[whedon]

@usethedata has been invited to edit this submission.

[jGaboardi]

@arfon, Lorena Mesa or Leonardo Uieda may be nice fits for editor if @usethedata is not available.

[usethedata]

I've got capacity to handle this and have no conflicts of interest with any of the authors.

[usethedata]

@whedon assign @usethedata as editor

[whedon]

OK, the editor is @usethedata

[usethedata]

@jGaboardi Thanks for the suggestions of reviewers.

[usethedata]

Update. Decline and no response on my first request. Sending some additional reviewer requests. Some do this through tagging on the issue, but I prefer, when possible, to do so by email based on my perspectives around privacy.

Thanks for the update. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

[usethedata]

@jGaboardi Thanks. Nothing in particular at this time. I have your list and a few others that have volunteered. Unlike some other papers I've done, I don't think finding reviewers will be a huge problem. Declines and no response aren't that unusual, and lots of people are in very challenging situations from time to time.

one more decline. Additional request sent out this morning.

[usethedata]

@whedon assign @martibosch as reviewer

[whedon]

OK, @martibosch is now a reviewer

[usethedata]

Still looking for the second reviewer, but I have one, so I'm opening the review issue and will add the second reviewer when I get an accept.

[usethedata]

@whedon start review

[whedon]

OK, I've started the review over in https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/2826.
