Your contributions to WordPress community are admirable !!<br>
I know you guys are VERY busy with admin works etc. I just suggested what I
thought can add value. It's ok if things are already properly in place. <br>
I'm patient and don't want to rush on anything :)<br>
I'm also willing to contribute as much as I can to the WordPress.org.<br>
Enjoy your time with the family and Thank You again for sharing your inspiring
schedule :)<br>
Blessings.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>The approval queue is not processed in batch for New Themes.
Theme Updates are pushed live in bulk, but New Themes are checked individually.
Generally speaking, I spend about an hour a day going through the approval
queue and the assigned Theme queue. That there is a backlog is because it's
only me and Emil processing that queue.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>My goal is an hour a day for TRT admin duties. But I work
100-110 hours every two weeks, on travel, 10 days on the road, 4 days home,
where I'm working 10-12 hour days. By the time I've Skyped with my family and
gotten dinner, I'm doing the best I can to fit in even an hour a day for TRT
duties. And when I'm home for those 4 days (like right now), I spend that time
with family.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Emil/Chip.<br>
Morning.<br>
I have a small concern and suggestion in themes approval process after it gets
approved by the reviewer.<br>
<br>
For e.g. : Newest Theme is : Litesite Added June 28<br>
<br>
Approx 1 week has passed and none of the themes which were approved a few days
ago went live after this.<br>
<br>
There are a few themes which are 7 weeks old or so still waiting for the
approval.<br>
Ref : <a
href="https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=approved&order=priority"
target="_blank">https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=approved&order=priority</a><br>
<br>
I think if we can have a process where you admins make 1-2 themes LIVE daily
instead of putting themes LIVE in BULK (like a few days ago you put 30 themes
LIVE at once) will surely encourage theme developers.<br>
<br>
P.S. I understand that you guys have loads of work and we are running short of
volunteers and admins but this point which I raised above should be considered
for giving it a thought :)<br>
<br>
Thank You.<br>
<br>
