I know that Otto requested that no requests be sent to the email list until a week has passed, and that's fine. However, I think 1-2 days is reasonable, and don't want to lower the expectation to which the admins should hold ourselves for performing the synchronization.<div>

Theme Approval</h1><p>Congratulations! The Trac ticket for your Theme has been approved, and your Theme is now ready to be synchronized to Extend, after which it will be available publicly. Please note: the synchronization process from SVN to Extend is manual, and generally completed by a WPTRT admin on a daily basis. Your Theme may take a day or two to go "live" in Extend. Thank you for your patience in this final step of the process!</p>

Sorry Emil,<div>I am not trying to get first but trying to focus,</div><div><br></div><div>- 2 weeks are not fair. nor for me :) but for everyone. And there are definitely some peoples who are not using the email list, but just waiting to see their theme public. If the theme does not go live, they are always in dark. I am also a case before joining this.</div>
<div>- There might be a good solution to speed up the process that may emerge with this discussion. So i think it is not useless.</div><div><br></div><div>* At-least one thing is clear with this discussion that we all have to wait with patience up-to week before asking any reviewers to make their theme live. is it not ?</div>

<p>I am sorry, but this last email is really funny. Yes, because we do this free there is a delay, come on now! Just an FYI, most of the reviewers are also the developers, we are on the same waiting list as everyone else, no special privileges for us, or even WordPress Theme Team.</p>
<p>One thing we all should be doing is stop wasting each others time with emails like this, focus on development not the time or who gets where first. </p>

<div>- But Two Weeks are not good.</div>
<div>- And why some themes go live first which were approved later as compared to some previously approved themes. Is there a no way to live in sequence of approval ?</div>
<div>- 3-4 days are fairly good and that period is also a source of passion to the developers who are contributing to the Open Source.</div><div><br></div><div>Sometimes more delay cause lack of interest to the development.
