[theme-reviewers] Asking users to review the theme

[emin ozlem]

Firstly, my email to the list was not meant to bypass your review or ask
for second opinion behind your back. Like i said, i understand it's against
the rules as you said. I just wanted to know how and why it's allowed for
plugins and not for themes.
Thanks for the link to the discussion, i thought mail list was something we
could make use of when we have questions we could not find answers to. Next
time i will ask in forums first.
