Hi @muehlhaus - I suspect this failure is from having á in a bib entry. I would suggest changing it to an a, since it's just a label, and then changing the same in the \cite part of the .md file. I also notice some odd bits in the entry itself, which should be cleaned up - eg the "EP -" and "SN -" at the end of fields.
Once you have done this, you can enter a new comment here that says @whedon generate pdf to start the PDF processing again.

Looks like we failed to compile the PDF

👋 @arfon - can you help with this one?

👋 @yochannah - would you be willing to edit this?
(Note that there's a pdf problem that I'm hoping @arfon will help us solve as well)

@danielskatz Sure!

@muehlhaus we don't seem to have any F# reviewers on our list so it could take a little while longer to find someone. Do you have any suggestions? No worries if not.

@whedon assign @yochannah as editor

OK, the editor is @yochannah

This looks to be a bug in our LaTeX template at the # in the title. I've been trying to fix this for the last hour and haven't found an easy fix yet sorry.

@yochannah - I am afraid that people I would recommend with the necessary expertise might not be completely free regarding conflicts of interest. I am very sorry.

That's fine and makes absolute sense. I'll send out some emails and see who we can find :)

@swoodhouse 👋 I wonder if you might be interested in reviewing this paper by any chance?

@whedon generate pdf

Attempting PDF compilation. Reticulating splines etc...

The article proof looks fine. Thank you for fixing the pdf generator that it can cope with our article.

Hi @tpetricek - I know you're busy reviewing another item on JOSS at the minute so I won't ask you to look at another (unless you want to!) - but I was wondering if you could recommend any F#-ers who might be interested in reviewing this?

This looks like a nice project! I'd try asking @cgravill or maybe @sylvanc.

Thanks @tpetricek!

@cgravill, @sylvanc, are either or both of you interested in reviewing this paper by any chance?

Still looking for a reviewer on this at the minute - most of the people I've managed to find through searches so far either have no research experience or have collaborated with the current authors 😆 I did find another name to try, though - @gbaydin, is this something we could interested you in reviewing?

Hi @yochannah,
Thank you for your continued efforts in finding a reviewer for our paper. I guess a factor why it is so hard finding people for this may be that all the fsharpers go straight to industry, which in my opinion is a pity as we see F# as a language suited very well for research in bioinformatics (and for all kinds of data analysis).

I’m also more on the industry side. Still, it seems like you’re having a challenge engaging an ideal reviewer, so I’d be willing to assist if that helps.

@cgravill I would be very happy to take you up on this one. Ideally I'd like a second reviewer as well - any chance you know anyone who might be interested?

I'd tag @tpetricek but I fear we'd have a cycle going then! :-) I'll try asking around.

@yochannah 👋 — how are you getting on searching for reviewers for this submission?

@PrashantVaidyanathan may also be able to help

Hi folks! @yochannah will be stepping down from the JOSS board, due to other obligations making it hard for her to volunteer time currently. I would like to reassign this submission to another editor.

@danielskatz — given current loads, could you take over on this one?

@whedon assign @danielskatz as editor

OK, the editor is @danielskatz

👋 @PrashantVaidyanathan - would you be willing to review this submission?

👋 @cgravill - thanks for agreeing to review - once I get one more reviewer, we'll start the review

@whedon assign @cgravill as reviewer

OK, the reviewer is @cgravill

👋 @TahaHachana, @dsyme, @jackfoxy, @tpetricek - would one of you be willing be the 2nd reviewer for this JOSS submission? (See our reviewer guidelines if needed)

@danielskatz thanks for the invitation. I'm going to have to beg out...too many other commitments, and I'm probably the least qualified for this topic.

@danielskatz I'm happy to help. I'm travelling this week so the earliest I can send in my reviews is 20th May if that's alright?

@PrashantVaidyanathan - Thanks! You will see as we start the review that a JOSS review is not a one-time read, but a set of suggestions and requests to the author, and an iterative process with the author to improve the submission (both the paper and the software)

@whedon add @PrashantVaidyanathan as reviewer

OK, @PrashantVaidyanathan is now a reviewer

@whedon start review

OK, I've started the review over in https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews/issues/1445. Feel free to close this issue now!
