Hello human, I'm @whedon, a robot that can help you with some common editorial tasks. @melund, @trallard it looks like you're currently assigned to review this paper :tada:.

:star: Important :star:

If you haven't already, you should seriously consider unsubscribing from GitHub notifications for this (https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews) repository. As a reviewer, you're probably currently watching this repository which means for GitHub's default behaviour you will receive notifications (emails) for all reviews ๐Ÿ˜ฟ

To fix this do the following two things:

  1. Set yourself as 'Not watching' https://github.com/openjournals/joss-reviews:

Hi @melund your reviewer checklist is at the top ๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿผ thanks a lot for your time and effort.
Let's use this issue to keep the review alive and use the submitting repo for any longer reviews/discussions.

As per usual if you run into any problems feel free to ping me here!

Thanks, @trallard. I may be a little while before I can get to this. I am going on sommer holiday on Friday. And I will most likely be away from my computer for at least two weeks.

I am sorry, but I am just too busy before I leave to get this done. I will look at it when I get back :)

Hi @melund just checking how you are doing? I am planning to move this forward this week - early the next

@trallard I am traveling in Asia and I only have my phone. I am back in a week and then I will try to get look at this.

@whedon remind @melund in 2 weeks

:wave: @melund, please update us on how your review is going.

I am done with my review. I think pulse more than qualifies for JOSS. It is a really good example of how to structure an open-source software project. With the recent addition of conda-forge package, I am also sure that the library will continue to work in the future.

All in all, nice work @finsberg ๐Ÿ‘

Thanks @melund
I just noticed that the item for the license has not been checked on your list but I just double checked and this is in compliance. So @finsberg I am going to move to the following editorial activites.

Can you please make sure to perform the following actions:

  1. Generate a new DOI for the software and past it here
  2. Make sure that the package version is up to date and report here: if needed make a new release and report it here
  3. Do a last review of the paper

  1. @trallard How do you want me do generate a DOI for the software? Zenodo?
  2. Package version number 2019.0 is up to date.
  3. I have done final review of the paper, and made a few corrections. The last article proof looks good. I also added the DOIs in the bib-file.

Hey @finsberg you can archive the software in Zenodo and add here the DOI for it

@trallard I forgot to check the license box. Everything is fine now. Good work @finsberg

:wave: @trallard - I think this paper is waiting on you to make your last checks here.

Hi everyone thanks for the ping! I will finalise this today's evening
