Hey guys,

I submitted an update to my SpellBound add-on a while ago. The issue
is that I had initially released an update (3.0.7) that had a small
bug in it so I went back and released a new verison (3.0.8) and
deleted 3.0.7. When I did this it seems that I lost a few reviews that
were given to the add-on. Now, I am afraid that the update may fall
through the cracks and never get approved!. So two questions:

1) Was there a better way to submit a fix to my update?

2) How long should I expect to wait until the update is approved?

The update added language support to the spell-checking add-on and
users have been hounding me for this for months!

Thanks!

I noticed this when I lost my best review when tidying up old versions
that I preferred not to be available as they were based on early experiments;
Is this review deleteion intentional or is it left over from earlier
functionality?

You didn't need to delete your previous update. It's easier to just
submit a new version, unless the bug was in some way damaging to users.

I see you add-on is pending review, so it should be approved eventually.

Is there any way to propogate my add-on up the priority list or check
status. It's been pending review for months. Users have been waiting
on a much-requested feature (language support)!

Thanks!
