"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.

- Unused files in the last package you submitted:
→ find -type f -size 0 ./site/removelisting.js ./noconcat/1_sth/obj.js ./all/script.js - 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. - Unused files in the last package you submitted:

oinkandstuff last edited byIn 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.

Hello. Why can’t my extension be published for more than 2 months? Users complain that it does not work (see the latest comments in the reviews). Other extensions at https://addons.opera.com/en/ are updated, and new ones appear every day. My extension has over 1 million downloads, good reviews. Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefeh published a new version during the day. Why are there such delays in Opera? In the panel, the developer generally moderators do not respond.

@brainierweb:
Our moderation queue is integrated with the points system mentioned by @tprockow. We are in the process of fine-tuning its parameters to give priority to good or popular extensions, yours included. It should be much better now.Sounds great. However, this is not very similar to reality. It doesn't really look like something has changed.
Since the update you posted on Aug 6, 2019 9:15:56 AM UTC none of the following has been accepted or rejected. All subsequent updates are just "Awaiting moderation".
Last update I posted on Aug 30, 2019 2:11:29 PM UTC
Play Shikimori Online v1.1.0 on Opera Developer: Published.
Play Shikimori Online v1.1.0 on Opera Next: Published
But not Opera Stable.For Opera Stable comes the update of Aug 6, 2019 9:15:56 AM UTC — you posted.

@tnowak It seems to me that life would be much easier for everyone if Opera would simply close Opera Add-Ons and build support for the Chrome Web Store into Opera. Why not let a 800 billion dollar corporation with 98,000 employees do the moderation work and store maintenance for you - for free? It works for Vivaldi. It works for Brave. Without Opera Add-Ons, Opera staff could spend more time draining those bug queues – or taking longer weekends
