2. Open floor 

During the meeting, the participants discussed whether the name of the suspended theme should be allowed for repurposing. Concerns were addressed. For example, the new theme could skip the review process, or it could cause a negative impact upon the current users of the suspended theme. As the review process handbook states the theme name is reserved and can not be re-used for a different theme.

Friendly Reminder:- As an effort is underway to automate the review process, we’re seeking ideas in automation planning for the remaining 36 requirements. Your help would be greatly appreciated!
