Latest review

First review round: 12.3 weeks. Overall rating: 4 (very good). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
After submission, we received several automatic emails informing that the paper was sent to peer review / that all requested reviews were received etc. It was very nice to get these emails and be able to follow the evolution of the manuscript. When we felt that too much time passed without receiving any news, we emailed the editor and he was prompt in answering us. Overall this was a smooth and satisfying submission process.
