[theme-reviewers] Featured Themes Questions

[Edward Caissie]

In my mind, given all the recent changes to the information being delivered
by Trac, we could take the resolutions down to three (or four).


   1. Approved - obvious, I would hope.
   2. ( Suggest-Approval - temporary, once the theme is "Approved" in extend
   this could be changed to Approved. )
   3. Not-Approved - changed from "not-accepted"
   4. closed-newer-version-uploaded - the only resolution that closes a
   ticket if it's not set by one of the above points.

The "needs-additional-review" is rarely used and if Theme Reviewers are
reading their ticket emails (everyone gets those, correct?) they will see
when someone needs to step in and have a second (or third?) set of eyes on a
ticket ...

Using the "Accepted" status in place of the "Approved" resolution would just
leave a great many open tickets wouldn't it? ... or perhaps I am not
understanding the idea?
