I'm looking for reviewer volunteers now. @betatim, @jpivarski, and @wlav have all been suggested. Would one of you be willing to review this paper for JOSS? (for more info about the journal and process, see http://joss.theoj.org/about, and particularly http://joss.theoj.org/about#reviewer_guidelines)

[wlav]

Sure can do, assuming that I pass the COI threshold.

[danielskatz]

@wlav
Did you contribute to the code?
What other potential COIs should we be concerned with?

[wlav]

No, I did not contribute nor did I use the code. However, root_numpy uses PyROOT extensively, and I was the main developer of that. Thus, I very much like root_numpy to succeed.

[danielskatz]

I don't see any COIs then.

So I will take "Sure can do" as an accept :)
and start the review process - more notifications will follow
