[theme-reviewers] Themes approval process is really slow

[Emil Uzelac]

Done!

I would happily accept that position and leave the rest behind and few
others for sure, but not really seeing as something that will happen any
time soon or at all. Reviewing Themes helps me keep mind away and I love
seeing different codes and approaches to Theme Development, I'm personally
happy where I am now :)
