Hello @olgadoronina thanks for your submission to JOSS. We're currently managing a large backlog of submissions and the editor most appropriate for your area is already rather busy.

While we are waiting, could you please:

• Check the bibtex related error above? The paper compiled, but there seems to be an error. You can use the following commands (one at a time, as the first line of a new comment) to regenerate the PDF and check the references:
  @editorialbot generate pdf
  @editorialbot check references

• Suggest some potential reviewers from our database? Please do not actually tag them with @

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