Latest review

First review round: 67.0 weeks. Overall rating: 1 (bad). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
It took FoCM more than a year from the date of submission until we received a response from the editor. One reviewer was clearly an expert and wrote a positive review, recommending only smaller changes. The other reviewer, who was very clearly not an expert on the topic and misunderstood several of our results, wrote a negative report. The editor chose to listen to the non-expert.
