Agree with revision however a lot of the reviewers issues are on
consistency and formatting so there need's to be some solid rules in place
for how to revise.
I suggest using leading venue as the template and having a small subgroup
responsible for formatting and editing to be consistent (shouldn't fall on
one person to do this as it will take time).
While I agree that there is substantial material here it suffers from being
overly long and feels like a document written by a lot of people. This
makes it hard to read and this good stuff gets lost! If we want people to
read it it should be easy to read.
I don't have access to OA funds at present but for what it's worth I
support the current leading venues (Bioinformatics and RS interface).
