</div>You mean the guidelines that changed in the week since I was waiting<br>
for the update to be reviewed? Or the guidelines that didn't get<br>
mentioned in the original review of the theme?<br>
<br>
Again, not berating anybody, just pointing out that throwing this back<br>
all on the theme author is also not a good way to have a discussion.<br>
<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote><div>That Theme Documentation section has *not* changed. Almost everything that *has* changed has been a clarification or expounding upon an existing criterion (or even downgrading some things from *required* to *recommended*).</div>
<div><br></div><div>The Theme Review Codex page is linked on the Theme Upload page on <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/upload">wordpress.org/extend/themes/upload</a> - so <b>*every Theme developer who uploads a Theme*</b> is aware of its existence, and therefore, the existence of the Guidelines.</div>
