A few comments and suggestions on the latest round of edits.
Also, it looks like we're missing a Spawn-of-EnergyPlus and Modelica reference.
The word limit is a 1000. It looks like without the references we're at almost 900 so we can't add much more.

| However, one of the challenges to realizing those savings is the correct implementation of such advanced control strategies and regularly verifying their actual operational performance. A field study found that only 50% of systems observed have their control system correctly configured to meet the energy codes requirement [@impl_ctrl], and control-related compliance verification is typically not included in the commissioning scope. | ||

| Current control verification is often conducted manually, which is time-consuming, ad-hoc, incomplete, and error-prone. | ||
| Current control verification is often conducted manually, which is time-consuming, ad-hoc, incomplete, and error-prone. To address this, `ConStrain` focuses on formalizing and automating verification of HVAC controls by analyzing sensor and actuator data streams from building control systems. `ConStrain` is an open-source library and application programming interface (API) for analyzing BAS data streams for adherence to an operational specification, which can correspond to building energy code (e.g., ASHRAE 90.1) or to a high-performance building control guideline (e.g., ASHRAE Guideline 36 [@g36]). `ConStrain` is also incorporating semantic modeling [@brick] capabilities to enable automated configuration and deployment of verification. |

- I'm not sure if we want to keep
open-sourcesince all software in the JOSS are open-source. verificationsinstead ofverification?
