[theme-reviewers] Theme review: Stuck in an infinite loop

[Otto]

The way it's supposed to work is when the first ticket makes it to the
top of the queue, the reviewer should check for newer versions of the
same theme (we have a link in the theme ticket just for that).
Reviewer marks all old versions as closed-newer-version-uploaded and
then reviews the latest version in its place.

Thus, you retain your place in line based on the original upload, and
we close out several tickets for the same theme in the queue at once.

> Have a look at my ticket for Blaskan 2.0 here:

> As time goes by – which I fully understand – moving up the queue I keep
> developing and releasing new versions.
> So when it finally is my turn to be reviewed I have released a new version
> which means that I have to go back last in line. Which I guess means that
> I'm stuck…

> I can't stop developing and releasing new versions while waiting for
> approval. I'm using it on my own site (www.permalink.se), a bunch of other
> people are using it and a client of mine are using it as a base theme for
> many of their blogs (which means I'm getting paid for parts of the
> development).

> Could this be arranged in another way? Can anyone help me with this? Pretty
> please…?

> All the best,
