@chenxinye – thanks for your submission to JOSS. When including the C code, this looks to be a very large submission. Could you clarify which aspects of this submission you are asking the JOSS reviewers to review?

Also, we're currently managing a large backlog of submissions and the editor most appropriate for your area is already rather busy.

For now, we will need to waitlist this paper and process it as the queue reduces. Thanks for your patience!

[chenxinye]

@arfon Thanks! fABBA is a native Python library and is completely driven by Python code, which has no reliance on C++ at all, so we just hope JOSS reviewers can help to review the Python code, on which our fABBA library is based.

We provide native C++ implementation just for C++ users for reference.

[chenxinye]

@arfon, I just removed the C++ code to for clarifying. Please let us know if you have any questions! Many thanks

Thanks for clarifying. Just to confirm, the C code doesn't need reviewing either?
