Hi Theme Reviewers,<br>
<br>
This message is for Otto. Regarding this tweet sent by Chip, <a href="https://twitter.com/chip_bennett/status/457238636270845952" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/chip_bennett/status/457238636270845952</a>,
we'd like to see if we can have the theme name "Journal"
transferred to our Slocum Themes/Slocum Studio (@slocumstudio)
account.<br>
<br>
Here's a bit of back-story:<br>
<br>
We have a new theme that we'd like to submit named "Journal".
After submitting, the theme-bot let us know that there was
already a theme with that name. After doing a bit of research,
we came across this ticket, <a href="https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15796#comment:6" target="_blank">https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/15796#comment:6</a>,
which appears to have been abandoned and the theme name has
since changed. Here's a link to the theme as it currently sits
on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/bestwebsoft/journalism-wordpress-theme" target="_blank">https://github.com/bestwebsoft/journalism-wordpress-theme</a>.<br>
<br>
Is it possible to transfer the "Journal" theme name to our
account? Our trac/WordPress.org username is "slocumstudio" (<a href="http://profiles.wordpress.org/slocumstudio/" target="_blank">http://profiles.wordpress.org/slocumstudio/</a>).
Please let us know if any other information is required.<br>
<br>
Thank you for your time,<br>
Scott<br>
