[theme-reviewers] PressWork 1.0.3

[Chip Bennett]

Doug,

What would you recommend?

We're doing our best to make the process known to everyone. I've included
the WPTRT workflow in two WordCamp presentations
(KC<http://www.slideshare.net/chipbennett/wordcamp-kc-the-wordpress-theme-repository>and
STL<http://www.slideshare.net/chipbennett/word-campstl-submittingathemetothethemerepository>
-
video *still* pending for both).

The SVN-Extend synchronization is manual, without even any built-in means of
notification of Themes that require synchronization. We're doing the best we
can with the resources/systems we currently have.

Speaking generally: I think Otto's main point is to be reasonable and
patient. Asking within a day of the Theme being approved in Trac is neither.
Asking over a weekend - which is the only time most of us have to spend with
our families - is neither. We really don't need to put in explicit rules, do
we? That seems like overkill to me.

*Otto: perhaps we could modify the Trac-approval email message, to that it
better reflects the workflow?*
