"All template tags and hooks used in a Theme are required to be
implemented properly."<br>

If this guideline is followed, then your theme already supports
child themes.<br>
<br>
While we're on the subject though, I take issue with the "@import"
part of the Child Theme Support draft section. Some parent themes
could very well auto-load the parent theme style.css file, so
@import might not be necessary.<br>

A "draft" guideline is one that is being added and can be
expected to be read and implemented as is but should not be used
as a "show-stopper" for the review of a theme. It should most
definitely be noted on the theme trac ticket. Also, in most
cases, "draft" guidelines should still be adhered to but if one
(or more) "draft" guidelines are not met it is not reason enough
to resolve a theme as "not-approved".<br>

<div>@jose . Recently I have developed a theme
Appointment version 1.1 which is not-approved
till date and the team review member gave the
following feedback " <b>Themes are required
to facilitate the use of Child Themes. A
"basic" Child Theme (i.e. a style.css with
Template header tag and @import() of the
Template style.css), when activated, should
function exactly as the Theme itself
functions. bloginfo('stylesheet_url') and
bloginfo(stylesheet_directory) were found in
the file header.php. Use
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() instead.</b>"

<div>From what I can recall it is
recommended but not required. I
believe it was Chip that added
something about that in the Theme
Review Codex. It was also discussed
some time ago. Can't really check at
the moment though.<br>
