@noamross (Though this is not R, I know he's been involved in a similar project)

Basically any julia data science person from that list:

@vchuravy
@ahwillia
@ChrisRackauckas
@ninjin
@juliohm

[juliohm]

I'd be happy to review @oxinabox after my PhD defense tomorrow :)

Thanks for pinging.

Cheers,

[oxinabox]

Good luck

[juliohm]

@oxinabox I passed my defense! o/ Everything is super busy around here though as I am relocating, moving out from California, and submitting the final draft of the dissertation to the university. I thought I would have time to review your paper, but I am super busy wrapping up. Will join a vacation trip in the next weeks, which will literally put me offline for some time.

I appreciate if other Julians from your list of suggested reviewers can help: @vchuravy @ahwillia @ChrisRackauckas @ninjin

[ninjin]

Yes, I would be happy to review this.

[oxinabox]

Thanks @ninjin , I think this needs to wait for an editor, and maybe a second reviewer, to proceed to the next stage?

@juliohm enjoy your break :-D.
