      My extension moderated now.
      I still want to get answer to this question:

      Will moderation process of new extension version takes a week+?

      Thanks.

      AFAIK, yes. Even more than that.

        Sadly for Opera users. Thanks for answer.

        Hope Opera will improve time of moderation process.

          When I submitted my extension, it took one day. So as @leocg says, I think it's because of vacations.

              As Opera moderators really check extension's code, looks like the more code your extension has the longer moderators will review it.

              I have 2 small extensions and their review usually takes moderators 1 day. Minimum it took half a day and maximum - 3 days.

                  So far it's over a month for me. The Mozilla team also goes through the code and these days it takes a day worst-case. Chrome is 45 minutes. Safari was slow too, but they've stepped it up with App Store integration. The reason I'm submitting is via a user's request for Opera support, and Opera really isn't doing itself many favors here, IMO.

                        To say the truth - I was wrong. Mozilla's moderation process is longer.
                        For now I'm waiting more than a month for Mozilla's review.

                          I am having the same moderation delays on both Opera and Mozilla. I am wondering if anyone here from Opera Tech support can shed some light on the delays?

                                  I am having the same issue.
                                  Firefox: 3wks
                                  Opera: 2wks
                                  And it is not done yet

                                  Chrome: 30min

                                  Maybe that is one of the reasons Chrome has 80% of marketing share.
                                  If the excuse to have such a long review process is increase security I cannot see Opera and Firefox more secure than Chrome !

                                          In Firefox the moderation process is also pretty slow but at least they display a review queue position, so you get an idea how long it will probably still take.

                                          Is there any way to contact the guys who are responsible for the review directly?
