Working with co-authors

Within each team of authors, you should agree on how you will store and exchange reviews. A number of possible strategies are outlined below, but you can combine elements from each, depending on the preferences within the team.

Warning: avoid combining strategies in ways that will lead to uncertainty about who has the current version of a review.

Strategy 1: Use Archie

All authors check the review back into Archie when they are not actively working on it.

Strategy 2: Exchange files by email  

The lead author has the review checked out from Archie and coordinates contribution from the other authors by sending it to them individually.
