👋 @jgostick - would you be willing to edit this submission

[danielskatz]

@whedon invite @jgostick as editor

[whedon]

@jgostick has been invited to edit this submission.

[ml-evs]

I know notifications are very easy to miss on GitHub, and I see that @jgostick has been active in other reviews, so I hope it is not rude if I bump this thread. My other editorial suggestion was Richard Gowers (richardgowers on GitHub).

[jgostick]

I am sorry, I am basically awash in github notifications. I don't even look at my github dashboard anymore. In fact, I only noticed this because I saw my avatar while browsing the "submissions without an editor" page.

[jgostick]

@whedon assign @jgostick as editor

[whedon]

OK, the editor is @jgostick

[jgostick]

@whedon add @hungpham2017 as reviewer

[whedon]

OK, @hungpham2017 is now a reviewer

[jgostick]

@whedon add @jamesrhester as reviewer

[whedon]

OK, @jamesrhester is now a reviewer

[jgostick]

@whedon start review

[whedon]

OK, I've started the review over in #3458.
