Motivation: The editor in chief and the associate editors replied to my requests when it was necessary. They are professional and very helpful. Furthermore, there was a problem concerning the proof service and after 10 minutes from my email, the editor in chief was in charge to fix the problem. I can be only grateful for her very professional support, she understood the problem with the copyediting service and she took a position about it. Besides, the associate editor manage carefully the review process and also her comments were helpful in improving the quality of the manuscript. Long review process but I am very satisfied about the successful conclusion of it.

Motivation: It took one complete year. The communication with the editor was always fluid. However, the paper went through four unnecessary rounds and the editor just made comments at the end (did she read it before?). The review could be improved if the editor takes a more active role as a referee and provide feedback earlier in the process.
