@benoit-girard Thanks for editing this submission!

Suitable reviewers would be rougier and oliviaguest.

[khinsen]

BTW, the Web site says about this paper: "This paper is review pending but the review hasn't started. Editor and reviewer assignments are happening over on GitHub »". And on the "Editor dashboard", there's 1 paper with no editor. Finally, the first post on this thread lists @benoit-girard as "Managing EiC", but not as the handling editor. So... we need to find a topic editor for this submission!

[oliviaguest]

👋 hello!

[benoit-girard]

@oliviaguest are you OK with being the topic editor of this editorial?

[oliviaguest]

You three author it and I edit it?

[khinsen]

I think the idea is that we are all authors, but that we play different roles in the editing process to test our new toolbox. So "being topic editor" comes down to "being the main tester of the topic editor tools".

[benoit-girard]

Yes that's how I understood it too: you co-author, and you accept to test the topic editor tools.
