Submission Pulldown for Selection of Article Type about jose-old HOT 7 CLOSED

This is two tasks:

1. adding the drop-down "Submission Type" to the web form (easy task)
2. modifying whedon so it knows which review checklist to print on the "Review" issue (not so easy?)

Perhaps task 2 can be made easier by delegating to the editor that commands whedon to start the review with choosing the submission type. Something like:

@whedon start review -type oer magic-word=bananas
vs
@whedon start review -type tool magic-word=bananas

Leaves a margin for human error, but a minor risk I think.

@arfon Care to comment on this?

Sure thing. I don't think Whedon needs to know anything about this as the review checklist is actually described in the JOSS (or JOSE in this case) we application: https://github.com/openjournals/jose/blob/master/app/views/shared/review_body.erb

So we need to adapt the database schema to add a submission_type field to thepapers table. Then we can add some view logic to allow people to pick which type of material they're submitting.

When the editor starts the review (@whedon start review) we can just have a case statement in the review_body.erb to make sure the correct review body is written to the GitHub issue.

Edit: Do you have someone to make these changes?

Ah, much better!

I think we need an editor that knows Ruby...

@arfon : We do not have anyone on hand to make these changes.

This was completed as part of the whedon upgrade. See:
