Latest review

First review round: 8.9 weeks. Overall rating: 4 (very good). Outcome: Drawn back.

Motivation:
We had two report, one quite detailed but the suggestions of further developments were not realistic, in particular in relation with the quality of the journal. The second was quite poor. On the other hand, the process was extremely fast.
