There is a problem and we do realize that. On one hand we HAVE to impose requirements, thus protecting customers, and one the other hand checking every single submission slows down the review process.

Many of our staff members are moderators, but they can't approve their own submissions, and they can't even have their extensions checked until all previous submissions are processed. I track submissions personally and I can assure you that everyone is treated honestly and equally. The problem is see more that requirements are not being followed and we still insist on them to be adopted.

Big queue of submissions is definitely a bad tendency and is not the way to go for the upcoming releases (which should bring even more interest to the system), so we are now trying to find ways to make the process more little, but still secure.

One of the possible ways is to open a post-moderated submissions (similar to Expertzzz), but offer a paid review service for special "BoonEx Approved" certificate. Non-approved extensions would still be available for download and may become approved eventually, if they gather enough positive feedback.

We also have some other ideas in mind and we definitely welcome discussion.

Thank you Sammie for bringing the subject up.
