Latest review

First review round: 21.7 weeks. Overall rating: 2 (moderate). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
The reviews took a long time to come back (compared to other venues) and the quality of the reviews was very poor. The LaTeX system used failed repeatedly to build the submission, even though it was written using the journal's own stylesheets and no other modules. The editors were helpful, however as a special issue I am not sure how much this can be generalized from.
