Over the course of the last year, community members from the metaMetaMeta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. team and the theme review team have been working together, testing new ways to make theme reviews quicker and easier without compromising the quality of themes in the directory. We improved existing tools, added new tools, opened up direct SVNSVNApache Subversion (often abbreviated SVN, after its command name svn) is a software versioning and revision control system.

What’s next?
Improving developer experience and simplifying the theme review process is an ongoing process and requires active participation from theme authors and contributors. If you are interested in contributing, follow the theme blog, join the slack chat or participate in the appropriate code repository (listed below).
Also, in order to make better, data-driven decisions, we have created a theme review stats page that will help us track how long it’s taking for theme reviews to complete and some other related theme information.
I want to thank @poena@kafleg and all the members of the Theme Review team who participated!
