"- Reviewer matching should be improved. I have received very few papers to review in the past months
and have never been sollicited as action editor even though I agreed to it and (I believe) I'm interested
in a fairly broad range of topics. I don't mind at all having few reviewing duties, but this personal
experience just makes talk about ""limited personpower of ARR action editors and reviewers"" less credible...
- I have seen a few desk rejects for ""stupid mistakes"", e.g. using the wrong stylesheet, overshooting
the page limit by 1 line, mixing up the uploaded files. If the review cycle is extended, such cases
should be handled in a more lenient way. Losing one month for such a stupid mistake is acceptable, losing
two months is not."
