Review Queue state

The tables below represent the state of the review queues at different points in time, divided into 3 “buckets” depending on how long they have been waiting. Ideally we want all add-ons in the queue to be under 5 days, so our goal is to have 100% of reviews on the third column.

#2

As I look at the statistics, seems like you are getting further from your goal every month.
What are the plans for changing those 8% to 100%? Is that even possible?

#3

There are a couple of plans underway that we expect will solve this problem by the end of this quarter. Hopefully in a couple of weeks you’ll start seeing a real difference.

#4

To be clear, the changes target WebExtensions and giving them automatic approval and post-review when deemed necessary.
