====== Plugin Approval ======

Before any plugin appears in [[.:|OpenStore]] it must be approved by OpenWack committee. This committee is the same folks behind the dev-helm (in blue jeans and with coffee cups) so forgive us the bureaucratic term. We just thought it should sound kind of... serious.

===== Why it's necessary =====

===== Approval process =====

  - You [[http://www.openwack.org/store/submit.php|submit]] your plugin/theme to the OpenStore and it gets queued for approval.
  - Approval takes anywhere from 1 hour to 1 week. You should not make status inquiries, all pieces of work are queued and will be considered whenever time permits.
  - The committee sends you notification about the result. If your plugin/theme is accepted it appears in the OpenStore under appropriate categories. Note that the category can be changed if we believe that the plugin is misclassified. If your plugin/theme is rejected you can expect human explanation from us and/or a link to the clause in the [[terms]] so you can quickly find out what went wrong. After correction you can submit your work again.
