👋 @JBorrow - want to edit this one?

[crvernon]

@dineshchitlangia - thank you. Once I get a topic editor assigned to this submission, they can see if you can be used as a reviewer for this work. I appreciate you reaching out.

[JBorrow]

@editorialbot assign me as editor

[editorialbot]

Assigned! @JBorrow is now the editor

[SevgiAkten]

Hi @JBorrow, thank you for accepting to be an editor for our submission.

The editorial bot suggests some potential reviewers by the similarity measure so we can say

• jmejia8
• ianhbell
• pySRURGS
• darioizzo
• jbuisine

may be invited as reviewers to our submission.

I also investigated the list of people and

• bhttchr6
• mpvanderschelling
• dc-luo
• vissarion
• devnums
• larkz
• jonbmartin
• iammix
• CeciliaCoelho
• Karangupta1994
• AlessandroPierro
• jbussemaker
• atismer
• ewu63
• mrava87
• parikshitbajpai

are suitable reviewers which have expertise on both Python and optimization.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @jmejia8, I noticed you were the author of a similar package submitted to JOSS. Would you be interested in reviewing this one for us? Our reviewer's guide is available here: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reviewer_guidelines.html

[jmejia8]

@JBorrow - Sure! I stay tuned.

[JBorrow]

@editorialbot add @jmejia8 as reviewer

Hi @jonbmartin, I found your name in the JOSS reviewer's database. Would you be available to review this submission? Our reviewer's guide is available here: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reviewer_guidelines.html

[jonbmartin]

Hi Josh,

I apologize, I am going to be quite busy for the next ~2 weeks, so I would prefer not to commit to reviewing now. If you are still looking for a reviewer at that time or need another round of reviews, I'd be happy to help then!

@JBorrow thank you for the invite but unfortunately the topic of the paper is a bit too far from my expertise. I will need to pass on this 😞

[JBorrow]

Hi @dc-luo, I found your name in the JOSS reviewer's database. Would you be available to review this submission? Our reviewer's guide is available here: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reviewer_guidelines.html

[dc-luo]

Hi @JBorrow, thank you for the invitation to review. Unfortunately I will be very busy until late October, so in the interest of not holding up the review, it'd be best that I pass for now. If you still need additional reviewers at that point (hopefully not!) I'd be happy to participate. Apologies for the inconvenience!

[JBorrow]

Hi @jbussemaker, I found your name in the JOSS reviewer's database. Would you be available to review this submission? Our reviewer's guide is available here: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reviewer_guidelines.html

[jbussemaker]

@JBorrow I would be available for reviewing the paper from the 21st of October only unfortunately. If that's ok I'd be happy to be included as a reviewer.
