Latest review

First review round: 17.1 weeks. Overall rating: 4 (very good). Outcome: Rejected.

Motivation:
This was a fairly standard special-issue handling. The review reports were received a month late relative to the original schedule, but that is not excessive. The reviewers gave reasons for their rejections. Not what we wanted, but it is hard to make sense of "not sufficiently original". I accept that that is the subjective aspect of peer review.
