Let me know how this looks @mpadge and @maelle. It's pretty simple, but I feel like the main thing that authors/editors should know is the timing for submitting to MEE (after review, before/after approval).

Thank you! I like it but adding an item makes me realize this section would benefit from sub-headers, I'll add them.

@mpadge @robitalec what do you think of the splitting+re-ordering I did?

Once we agree on a version I will update the Spanish translation and Portuguese draft translation. Thank you!

There is a part of the new text I don't understand in English, so I still need to finish that part. I already reviewed the rest; it looks good and is a very nice addition to the guide!
Thanks so much for writing it!

- For a submission to Journal of Open-Source Software (JOSS), do not submit it to JOSS consideration until after the rOpenSci review process is over: if your package is deemed in scope by JOSS editors, only the accompanying short paper would be reviewed, (not the software that will have been extended reviewed by rOpenSci by that time). Not all rOpenSci packages will meet the criteria for JOSS.

- For a submission to Methods in Ecology and Evolution (MEE), submit it to MEE only after the rOpenSci review process is over, either before or after the package has been accepted. The review collaboration with MEE was introduced in a [blog post](https://ropensci.org/blog/2017/11/29/review-collaboration-mee/). The relevant article type for MEE is [Application](https://besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/hub/journal/2041210X/features/applicationpapers) for more details.

I do not understand this text: first, we said, "Only send the package after our review is over," and then we said, "Either before or after the package has been accepted." So when should the author send it? Does it send the package for review again, or does it have to send an article just like JOSS? It looks like It is the same as JOSS, so perhaps we could shorten this text and use it for both?

If they are not the same, I don't understand the difference.

I will wait for your changes to this text before continuing with the Spanish review.

@robitalec did we mean accepted to CRAN?
