JOSS paper feedback

[jsheunis]

Hi @kwinkunks

The JOSS paper itself is nicely written, well done. Here are some minor feedback points:

• Based on the checklist "Do the authors describe how this software compares to other commonly-used packages", you do provide examples of similar packages in lines 61-65, but you don't elaborate on how redflag compares to these. I would add a couple of sentences to explain differences.

• Typo in line 50:

  There are two kinds of scikit-learn transformer

  --> There are two kinds of scikit-learn transformers:

• Line 64-65, typo, and more info needed:

  Finally, evidently provides on a Jupyter interface with lots of plots.

  --> Finally, evidently provides on a Jupyter interface with lots of plots.
  Also, "lots of plots" sounds very vague, perhaps you could provide a bit more detail about what this package provides.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I addressed these in the latest draft.

• Added this sentence:

  In comparison, Redflag is easier to set up and use
  than great_expectations and pandera, and while it is compatible with
  Pandas DataFrames and Jupyter it does not depend on them.

• Reworded sentence:

  The scikit-learn transformers are of two kinds:

• Fixed typo and clarified:

  Finally,
  evidently provides a graphical
  dashboard for Jupyter.
