    <p>This is definitely a good idea. The challenge might be to
      schedule a time when a sufficient quorum of us are available....</p>
    <p>My plan over the rest of this week is to draft up a significant
      re-working of the paper, and then distribute that to all. This
      won't be a complete revision, but rather some example of the kinds
      of things to say, and some outlines of the proposed
      re-organization. I should have this done by Friday, or this
      weekend at the latest. So then a Zoom call next week (Monday, May
      17?) might make sense to talk thru the ideas that I send out by
      this Friday. <br>

        It is probably worth having a zoom chat to discuss the revision
        so that we are all working in concert.  In particular, John
        Gennari sent an email last week on May 3 with some thoughts that
        are well-worth discussing.
        <div><br>

            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>The paper will be revised as requested by 10 voters and

            <div><br>

            </div>
            <div>I ask to reach a revised version by May 25 so that we

            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>So far only Sheriff provided suggestions for revisions
              prior to submission
              so I suggest we start discussing those:</div>

            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>However, since it is out of format and out of date, I
              suggest that all those who want to make changes login and
              request to access the main document and introduce changes
              there:</div>

            </div>
            <div>I do ask that this will not be delayed any further and

                <div><br>
                  It seems 2 people supported Bioinformatics - James
                  Glazier and Yaling Liu  so if this vote is accepted,
                  they will split publication costs and the terget venue
