Hi @cMadan, can you handle this submission? I see quite a few psychology-related references/applications here.

[DominiqueMakowski]

Potential reviewers that could be interested include @paul-buerkner and @tjmahr ☺️

[tjmahr]

I can review it. (I have done one review in the past for ROpenSci.)

[paul-buerkner]

It is a rather short article, right? I think I should be able to review it. Are there any reviewing guidelines?

[strengejacke]

@paul-buerkner

Guidelines are described here: https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/review_criteria.html
The review will be in a GitHub repo, where reviewers have this checklist:
https://joss.readthedocs.io/en/latest/review_checklist.html

You can glance at the compiled PDF here:
https://github.com/openjournals/joss-papers/blob/joss.01537/joss.01537/10.21105.joss.01537.pdf

But it's not only the review of the paper, but also of the GitHub-repository, as you have a checklist for both the paper and the repo.

[paul-buerkner]

Great, thanks! I am happy to review this paper then.

[kyleniemeyer]

Thanks to both of @paul-buerkner and @tjmahr for volunteering so quickly! I'll assign you now, but we are still waiting to get an editor assigned to handle the submission, who will actually start the review.

[kyleniemeyer]

@whedon add @paul-buerkner as reviewer

[kyleniemeyer]
