 Currently Newest Plugins list is sorted by date/time when plugin hosting
 request was approved. This assumes that plugin author will write plugin
 first, and then send hosting request and upload finished plugin to svn.

 When someone wants to reserve plugin name first and then develop it, it
 may not be published on Newest Plugins list at all, if development will
 take few days or more.

 Therefore I suggest to change order for Newest Plugins list - it should be
 sorted by date/time when plugin was uploaded to the svn for the first
 time. With this change everyone will have equal chance do get attention
 when his/her plugin is on Newest Plugins list.
