[Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman]

@abhi18av thanks for this submission. I am the AEiC for this track. I have just inspected the above software report, the paper, and your repository. Unfortunately this work is not in scope for JOSS as it stands, as it does not conform to our substantial scholarly effort criteria in terms of size. I will therefore now proceed to reject this submission.

Note that although rejected as out of scope, this does not mean the work is of a poor quality or not useful. It merely means that based on size/functionality it is not in scope in its current form.

We do hope you will consider JOSS for any future (re)submissions that are of a more substantial nature.

[Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman]

[editorialbot]

Paper rejected.

[abhi18av]

I understand @Kevin-Mattheus-Moerman - thank you for your review and comments!

I would just like to understand whether, upon the inclusion of new functionality in the pipeline, the journal would be open to accommodating the submission (either this or a new one)?
