@XLTechie do you happen to know how long it usually takes for approval? Thanks!

[XLTechie]

I don't know specifically if they have a schedule for working on approvals, but a week or two wouldn't surprise me. In any case, they don't work on weekends.

BTW, you shouldn't distribute the __pycache__ directory as part of your add-on.

[chigkim]

Thanks, I removed pycache, rebuilt, and updated the binary. The download link stays the same. Do I need to resubmit?

[XLTechie]

While I think it's best practice to remove the pycache, NV Access apparently doesn't care, or the automation would have rejected it already. So perhaps just drop it from your future versions. Otherwise, yes: you have to resubmit to avoid distributing it, since the automation will have already cached this version. @seanbudd care to comment? Why do we allow add-on packages to contain __pycache__ directories?
