editorial suggestions

Dear All
Thanks for the comments - I've submitted everything to:

If anyone would still like to make further comments then I urge you to do so.
Thanks,

Hi Greg,
Here are my comments on the RD* hadronic paper.
We discussed the general comments (paper state, publication strategy etc.) yesterday, so I leave it at specific physics or text comments.
Physics + presentational comments:
l. 211) Does your systematic not include an uncertainty on the hadronic decay of the tau to three pions, which should be mentioned here?
Figure 3) Is the bottom left fit so bad or is the template uncertainty large enough to make it consistent with data? In the second case, the template uncertainty should be plotted. In general, in the black and white figures it is not possible to separate some components by eye.
l. 216) I would propose we mention the pure experimental result (B->D* tau (-> 3pi nu) nu/ B->D* 3 pi ) as well, so it can be improved later with external input.
l. 259) This is the same central value as your result, could you check which is which?
Text comments:
l. 41) Dynamic, kinematic and topological -> remove 'dynamic'
l. 44) This sentence about the fit is long and confusing, split up into fit strategy and way to obtain fit templates.
l. 132) The structure of the selection steps is very unclear. For example in this sentence, do you use multiple BDTs or is the sentence about MVA's and BDT's just repeated?
l. 205) Is this correction related to a later correction factor? Maybe we should just mention which corrections are performed, not the exact numbers, and then show the systematic from corrections in the table with systematics? Also, this sentence is long and unstructured, so it should be rewritten.
l. 246) Just to check: for this 3% bias, the uncertainty is 1.3%, as included in the systematics table? It should be mentioned in that case as a single result, so people do not have to do this combination of information on their own.
Cheers,
Mick

Hi all,
So it seems we are getting all exciting papers. The hadronic R_D* paper is out and assigned to us. Please read it all. I'll volunteer someone to collect comments.
Cheers,
Patrick
