💥 thanks @jbytecode!

[jbytecode]

@EssamWisam - Hello, thank you for submitting your work to JOSS. I am the handling editor for this submission. The editorial bot has identified some previously published works that are similar to yours. Initially, I will attempt to invite the authors of these works to serve as reviewers. If we are unable to assign at least two reviewers through this process, I will then ask you to provide a list of potential reviewers from the suggested reviewers list. Thank you in advance.

[jbytecode]

👋👋👋 Dear @sylvaticus, @ArneTillmann, @matbesancon, @MikeInnes 👋👋👋

Would you be willing to assist in reviewing this submission for JOSS (Journal of Open Source Software)?

JOSS publishes articles about open source research software. The submission I'd like you to review is titled:

Imbalance: A comprehensive multi-interface Julia toolbox to address class imbalance

You can find more information at the top of this Github issue (#5971).

The review process at JOSS is unique: it takes place in a GitHub issue, is open, and author-reviewer-editor conversations are encouraged. If you have any questions please let me know.

This is the pre-review issue. After setting at least 2 reviewers we will start the review process in a separate thread. In that thread, there will be 23 check items for each single reviewer.

Thank you in advance!

[sylvaticus]

I'm in....
