expected review time for new module?
I realize Drupalcon was just on, so people were pretty busy, but I'm wondering what the expected review time is for a new module? I've had review requests out for 9 days (http://drupal.org/node/1082284) and haven't gotten a bite since an initial post to put up the link + change to needs review. For someone that is just getting into this from the outside, it would be great to get some feedback here.

Currently, there are untouched applications since more than 3 weeks. It's sad to say, but in the old procedure, the longest one is a few months. I don't know how to accelerate the procedure, there are limited people (who actually do the review), so you can help review other application, too. Or wait for a resource slot, or for someone who is interested in your project to do the review, or spread your project, so that someone thinks "this one should go official now!". -- Hai-Nam Nguyen (aka jcisio) http://jcisio.com
You might speed the process by running your module through Coder and posting/ fixing the results. That's one of the first things most reviewers would do, so save a step and earn goodwill. http://drupal.org/project/coder On Mar 21, 2011, at 9:36 AM, jcisio <jcisio@gmail.com> wrote:

Already did, no issues found. That's posted as comment #5. -Sean On 03/21/2011 12:03 PM, Ken Rickard wrote:

That's good. Another point that will earn goodwill AND create more free time among the reviewers is helping other applicants. If you can run coder on the applications of other people and post the results as suggestions that will help. Then mention anything else you notice that could be fixed as well.

Another thing that works very well: If you have a friend (or friends) who already has full-project privileges (formerly CVS access) then ask them to review. Reviewing is open to anybody. Just follow the guidelines suggested at http://drupal.org/node/1011698. It's not that hard to review an application. -Randy On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 10:23 AM, Greg Knaddison < greg@growingventuresolutions.com> wrote:

Ok, great advice. I'm already contributing heavily on another module that the maintainer made me a co maintainer on, so I'll ask them. Thanks, -Sean On 03/21/2011 12:39 PM, Randy Fay wrote:
