The version in this review doesn't correspond to the latest version of the software. Unsure how to fix that here @biorelated. Can I simply edit the Whedon comment?

I will carry the review with the latest version 0.1.4 in the meantime

@arfon It's going pretty well thanks for checking!

Vacations have slowed things a little but my last issue is now closed. I'll test the new release and if everything goes fine I fell comfortable recommending for publication

@arfon Kindly review this for any final checks before consideration and publication.

Mostly this looks fine. I would encourage the authors to consider adding a little more detail to their paper as per our submission guidelines:

  • A summary describing the high-level functionality and purpose of the software for a diverse, non-specialist audience
  • A clear statement of need that illustrates the purpose of the software
  • A list of key references including a link to the software archive
  • Mentions (if applicable) of any ongoing research projects using the software or recent scholarly publications enabled by it

@george-githinji

@bovee, Kindly address the concerns highlighted by @arfon.

@arfon Thanks for the suggestions; we've expanded the paper.md to address those concerns.

@biorelated Please let me know if there are any remaining concerns or if there's anything else to do. Thanks!

More detailed notes:

  • A summary describing the high-level functionality and purpose of the software for a diverse, non-specialist audience

The opening paragraph has been expanded to describe what MinHashing is used for and what Finch adds to traditional MinHashing schemes.

  • A clear statement of need that illustrates the purpose of the software

The second paragraph contains an expanded description of how MinHash works that motivates a discussion of the problems that Finch solves in the third paragraph.

  • A list of key references including a link to the software archive

We've added a link to the GitHub software repository.

  • Mentions (if applicable) of any ongoing research projects using the software or recent scholarly publications enabled by it

The last paragraph now contains a description of how we are using Finch in our web platform.

@bovee - At this point could you make an archive of the reviewed software in Zenodo/figshare/other service and update this thread with the DOI of the archive? I can then move forward with accepting the submission.
