Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:12 coffee2code]:
 > The last of these appear to be that the user doesn't have commit access
 to the plugin and wasn't listed as a contributor in the readme.

 That's only for one of the four mentioned plugins, the other three do have
 that username in `readme.txt`. The user appears to be properly recognized
 now: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/modify-post-type-
 slug/#post-9016194

 > This is all true, though should only have been an issue for the 24 hours
 after the committed changes in [5286]. The caches for the group `plugin-
 objects` are set to expire after 24 hours. The caches for `plugin-authors-
 slugs` and `plugin-contributors-slugs` after only one hour.

 Yeah, I've seen `DAY_IN_SECONDS` on the former, but didn't know how the
 dotorg cache backend handles expiration.

 Haven't seen any new reports since yesterday, I guess the issue should
 have resolved itself by now.
