@editorialbot invite @gkthiruvathukal as editor

:wave: @gkthiruvathukal - are you able to take this one on as editor? Thanks!

[gkthiruvathukal]

@crvernon Ok, sure! I will take it. A little swamped in general lately but as long as slow progress is better than no progress, I can manage it!

[crvernon]

@editorialbot assign @gkthiruvathukal as editor

@gkthiruvathukal - slow progress is indeed better than no progress in this case, so thank you!!

[editorialbot]

Assigned! @gkthiruvathukal is now the editor

[crvernon]

@editorialbot assign @gkthiruvathukal as editor

Doing this again because we had some system upgrades that were applied.

@haniyeka, @sherbold, @stsievert: Please let me know if you are willing to contribute a review for this JOSS submission. I need at least 2 reviewers to proceed.

[stsievert]

@gkthiruvathukal sorry, I can't review. I don't have the bandwidth now.

I have taken a brief glance. I'd encourage the authors (@tvh0021, ...) to review the JOSS review guidelines. In particular, I think the main page should feature a clear statement of need and the answer to the question "what's the purpose of this project?" An FAQ page is not where I'd expect to find that answer.
