@tnowak Thank! I downloaded the new version, the jQuery library was updated to the latest version, minor bugs were fixed. I hope that moderation will happen anyway

Hi. Why is my extension published for so long? The previous version has stopped working. Many corrections have been made. Users complain.
Enabled option "I want my extension to be available for auto-publishing."

package/21805
OkTools - v4.2.3 was submitted. Awaiting moderation.

@tnowak You can say that with package/198615?

@commaticus : Let's start with:

• "There must be no unused files."
• "Well-known third-party libraries must be in a genuine and in an unchanged form. They should be acquired from the vendor’s official website or a CDN."

"There must be no unused files." - It seems there are no unused files.
"Well-known third-party libraries must be in a genuine and in an unchanged form. They should be acquired from the vendor’s official website or a CDN." - we use two libraries - jquery and D3js. They in a genuine and in an unchanged form. And they acquired from the official website.

Hey guys, we submitted our add-on on the 8th of Oct, 2018. Is there a way to speed up the moderation process?

How is the check done? SHA-256 hash comparison between the included file and the file for the latest version of the library?

Was just wondering how @commaticus could check before-hand just to make sure the system will be happy.

1. Unused files in the last package you submitted:

    → find -type f -size 0
    ./site/removelisting.js
    ./noconcat/1_sth/obj.js
    ./all/script.js
   

2. Could you please provide links to these files on the official websites? I can only find ones with a comment containing the version number on the first line.

@burnout426
Libraries need to be byte for byte exact copies, so SHA-256 hash comparison can be used to check that.

In my opinion, why is Opera is making live Debug of Extension on a public thread?
Please fix the delays in Opera extensions and reply on the extension admin-dev chat directly.
I have extensions with + 1 year waiting...
Just fix the delays, hire more people to do reviews and stop this circus.

Greetings.
