Hi @lgrcia — Thanks for your submission to JOSS. Owing to the relatively small size of the codebase, I'm going to flag this for editorial review on whether it meets our requirements for substantial scholarly effort. This process should take about a week or two while we come to a consensus. Thanks for your patience!
