There were some discrepancies between the LaTeX output in the Github Actions (that we used) and whedon. The output should be better now.

OK, the editor is @drvinceknight

[szhorvat]

I would be interested in reviewing this. I don't know Rust though, and I am not an expert in Python. However, I am interested in graph libraries, I use network analysis libraries for my work daily, and I am a member of the igraph developer team.

[drvinceknight]

Thank @szhorvat, I will add you as a reviewer and deem to find other reviewers with expertise in Python/Rust.

[drvinceknight]

@whedon assign @szhorvat as reviewer

[whedon]

OK, @szhorvat is now a reviewer

[drvinceknight]

@jkbren, @inakleinbottle and @felipeZ I'm pinging you to ask if you would be able to assist with reviewing this submissions to JOSS (The Journal of Open Source Software).

JOSS publishes articles about open source research software. The submission I'd like you to review is titled: “retworkx: A High-Performance Graph Library for Python” which I believe fits within your stated interests/expertise. You can find more information at the top of this Github issue.

The review process at JOSS is unique: it takes place in a GitHub issue, is open, and author-reviewer-editor conversations are encouraged. If you have any questions please let me know.

@szhorvat and @inakleinbottle the review has started over on #3968 where there are instructions and guidance. If you have any queries at all or if there is anything I can assist with please let me know.

[szhorvat]

Thanks @drvinceknight. There seems to be an issue with compiling the PDF in #3968.
