@MarieHouillon - thanks for your quick fixes. We'll now have a discussion amongst the JOSS editors about if this is research software as defined by JOSS. This could take a week or two.

[danielskatz]

👋 @MarieHouillon - we'll accept this for review, and get started shortly.

[danielskatz]

👋 @atrisovic - I know you are currently at your editing limit, but this seems potentially a good fit for you, so I wonder if you might want to take it, particularly if you are close to done with any of the others you are editing. If not, I will handle it, but I thought I would try you first.

[danielskatz]

@editorialbot invite @atrisovic as editor

[editorialbot]

Invitation to edit this submission sent!

[atrisovic]

Hi @Alexhb02, I would like to invite you to review this software paper. Please let me know if you would be available. Your insights and feedback on this work would be valuable and much appreciated.

[danielskatz]

👋 @atrisovic - I don't see any progress on getting reviewers for this in last month. What's going on?

[atrisovic]

Hi @danielskatz and all, apologies about the delay, the past few weeks were busy and hectic. I should have some time today to send reminders to the reviewers and invite new ones.

[atrisovic]

Hi @markus1978,
I am reaching out to invite you to review a manuscript titled "FACILE-RS: Archival and Long-Term Preservation of Research Software Repositories Made Easy," currently under consideration at the Journal of Open Source Software (JOSS).
Your insights and feedback on this work would be valuable and much appreciated. To help with the review, we have a reviewers' checklist with useful guidelines.
Thank you in advance for considering this invitation.

[danielskatz]

👋 @atrisovic - Can you summarize where things are here, and what the next steps are? (As track editor, I try to check in on reviews where nothing has happened in a couple of weeks.)

[atrisovic]

Hi @danielskatz, of course. I reached out to a few people over email and here to ask them to review, without much luck so far. I haven't reached out to everyone from the comment above, so I apologies for being slow.

[exaexa]

Hi @atrisovic ! I have time to review, and from a quick peek at the paper it looks I should have the required expertise and I don't see any possible conflict of interest. I should be able to have the review done by next week.

This would be the first review from me for JOSS though, do I have to confirm somewhere in the JOSS webapp interface or everything is done here via issues&PRs?

Thanks!

[RobLBaker]

Unfortunately I cannot contribute any time until the week of October 21. If you're still looking for reviewers then, I'd be happy to pitch in but I hope the creators don't have to wait that long.

[atrisovic]

Hi @exaexa, that sounds great! Nothing to do on the website, the review is happening in the GH issue, and I will help with the next steps.

[atrisovic]

@editorialbot add @exaexa as reviewer

[editorialbot]

@exaexa added to the reviewers list!

[atrisovic]

Hi @RobLBaker, thank you so much for your reply. There is no specific deadline for a JOSS review, so the week of Oct 21 would work. I will add you as a reviewer so we can proceed to the review stage,but we can follow up on your availability then.

[atrisovic]

@editorialbot add @RobLBaker as reviewer

[editorialbot]

@RobLBaker added to the reviewers list!

[atrisovic]

@editorialbot start review

[editorialbot]

OK, I've started the review over in #7330.

[AngryMaciek]

Hi @atrisovic, I'd be happy to review this submission :)

[atrisovic]

@AngryMaciek wonderful! I will add you as a reviewer.
