Reminders

This responder allows to schedule a reminder for the author or a reviewer to return to a review after a certain period of time (supported units: days and weeks). The command will only work if the mentioned user is an author, a reviewer for the submission or the sender of the message (so editors can set reminders for themselves). Multiple users can be reminded at once using a comma-separated list.
