[Journal] How To Apply Corrections To An Article

[Tyler Mitchell (OSGeo)]

Hi Landon,

In the OJS system you can post comments to the author OR upload a  
modified version.  You should have an option to upload a revised  
version and then also select whether or not "changes" are needed.   
Then the author will be able to review it and upload his/her  
modifications.

Sorry, I'm catching up from being sick for a week, still getting  
through the pile of email..
