<DIV>We only review Themes. We don't review Plugins. We have absolutely NO
control over anything that happens in the Plugin Repository. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>(For that matter, we have absolutely NO control over Themes already in
the Theme Repository. We only deal with Themes being submitted, as updated or
new, to the Theme Repository.)</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Why do you say that not allowing PHP errors and Deprecated Function Calls
makes no sense? To the contrary: what sense does it make not to fix those
errors?</DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Hello,<BR><BR>Why are WP_DEBUG notices given so much
importance, Is it to take load of the reviewers?<BR><BR>The reason why I'm
asking this is BuddyPress throws lot of notices, and it still continues to
be in the plugin repository.<BR><BR>How do you justify accepting a plugin
with lots of notices and not accepting a theme with few notices, are these
notices really harmful?<BR><BR>I don't think so, if they were, they would be
shown as warnings.<BR><BR>Don't tell me that it's a plugin and can not be
compared it with themes, a theme can do every thing a plugin
does.<BR><BR><B>My theme, SWIFT is used on thousands of blogs without any
problems, </B>still i cant get it to be accepted into the repository for
reasons that don't really make sense.<BR><BR>You can check the support forum

single problem that points to the notices.<BR><BR>You can find BuddyPress
throwing lot of notices with the default theme. I don't have any problems
modifying my code to get rid of notices, but wasting my time on this when
BuddyPress is showing lot of notices by default doesn't make sense to
me.<BR><BR>ScreenShot of notices from BuddyPress<BR><BR><A
