:wave: thanks for your submission to JOSS. From a quick inspection of this submission it's not entirely obvious that it meets our submission criteria. In particular, this item:

  • Your software should have an obvious research application

Could you confirm here that there is a research application for this software (and explain what that application is)? The section 'what should my paper contain' has some guidance for the sort of content we're looking to be present in the paper.md.

Many thanks!

@arfon Thanks for having a first look at my submission!

Could you confirm here that there is a research application for this software (and explain what that
application is)? The section 'what should my paper contain' has some guidance for the sort of content we're looking to be present in the paper.md.

The software is beneficial for researchers who work in the field of evolutionary multi-objecitve optimization of combinatorial (graph) problems and the multi-criteria spanning tree problem (mcMST) in particular. An example: Most recently we used the software to develop a new mutation operator for an evolutionary multi-objective algorithm for the mcMST based on insights gained from the empirical analysis of Pareto-optimal solutions of mcMST problems. This work was submitted to the multi-criteria decision making track of the IEEE SSCI2017 and is currently under review.

OK thanks @jakobbossek.

If you haven't already, it might be worth adding something about this to the paper.md.

We just need to find an editor and reviewer for this submission now before we can proceed with the main review.

@ArdiaD @lmarti @berndbischl @jakob-r @aklxao2 @luca-scr @gvegayon would you be interested in reviewing this submission for JOSS? If you choose to accept this invitation we'll open a review issue where the actual review will take place. Review is often fast and focuses on the software, its claims, and the documentation. Thanks! :rocket:
