Latest review

First review round: 38.7 weeks. Overall rating: 3 (good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
Handling Editor-in-Chief changed during the review process (8 months after 1st submission) and thus, there was another set of new reviews which was unnecessary. EiC should've completed the decision process before stepping down. Not very professional I must say.
