I submitted a theory to the AFP, but discovered a way to improve a sentence in my text comments. Is it better to wait until the reviewers look at my theory first and tell them my improvement or resubmit my theory now?
I'm not sure. It may depend on the revierer.
If you don't get a reply on Zulip, maybe you want to ask on the mailing list or contact the reviewer directly.
I got an automatic reply a few weeks ago that the AFP editors were notified of my submission but haven’t heard anything else yet.
Yosuke I saw you did the actuarial mathematics theory. That is my line of work.
Yosuke one of the reasons I got into Isabelle is because I thought maybe I could somehow prove my actuarial programming could be verified by Isabelle. At this point I’m not sure if this is feasible.
Thank you for your continued interest in my work.
At the moment, the progress of my project is rather slow, as I am working on it alongside full-time job, which limits the time I can devote to research.
I would greatly appreciate your patience and understanding.

I have ran into this scenario before. In that case, I resubmitted with a comment that this is a resubmit and I described the change I made
Thank you Yong, on your advice I just resubmitted with a comment.
