@editorialbot invite @kellyrowland as editor

:wave: @kellyrowland - would you be willing to edit this submission for JOSS?

[editorialbot]

Invitation to edit this submission sent!

[kellyrowland]

Sure, I can take this on.

[thchang]

Hi all, this is a really cool pre-review system! Thanks to all involved for your time. I don't have any reviewer suggestions, but I can look through the spreadsheet of past reviewers if needed. Let me know if you need anything from me at this time. Also the DOIs that @editorialbot found are correct. We just didn't include any DOIs in the .bib file

[kellyrowland]

Yeah, the JOSS setup is pretty slick. 🙂

I would (or will) also be looking at the spreadsheet for potential reviewers, so if you're able to scroll through and look for folks with relevant expertise, I'd gladly take some suggestions.

[Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman]

@editorialbot assign @kellyrowland as editor

[editorialbot]

Assigned! @kellyrowland is now the editor

Hi @MiftariB @Viech @g4brielvs 👋 would you be available for and interested in reviewing this JOSS submission?

[MiftariB]

Hi @kellyrowland,

Thanks for the invitation to review this work. It seems an exciting package, but the academic year is ending, and I am a little overwhelmed by work and won't be able to review this until early July. So I will have to, unfortunately, decline.

Best Regards,

BM

[Viech]

Hi @kellyrowland, yes I can review this.

[kellyrowland]

@MiftariB thanks for the quick reply! Best wishes for the conclusion of the academic year.

@Viech Great, thank you! I'll add you as a reviewer; the formal review process will start as soon as I can secure a second reviewer.

[kellyrowland]

@editorialbot add @Viech as reviewer
