Using lines as a basis for anything is pointless.

function foo() { ... } function bar() { ... } for (...) { if (...) quit(); }


I'd really like everyone's opinion on this question, including people who aren't on the team.

function wordsFromBeginning(%txt, %n)
{
   return getWords(%txt, 0, %n);
}

$text = "Hello world, how are you?";

for(%a = 5; %a >= 0; %a -= 2)
   echo(wordsFromBeginning($text, %a) SPC wordsFromBeginning($text, %a - 1));

7 lines, go ahead and try it out

sorry, let me say that differently: lines can be used as a low-weight metric in addition to a number of other things to assign a proper threat level

I can't tell if this style is too different or not.

I think it would be better to have designs like RTB that fit with the rest of the GUIs in blockland

Or better yet, redesign all of the GUIs in blockland

Anything formatted like this should be instantly failed for handicapation, and line endings should be automatically converted to CR + LF to prevent issues like this.

And by "this," I mean containing 4 statements or more on a single line.

That's better :p

Maybe have a middle-level type of reviewer? One that has the ability to approve but only for mods/updates that are very low threat level.

Good idea!

Privileged Reviewers:
A very small group of people who can approve/fail any mod.

Basic Reviewers:
A slightly bigger group of people who can approve/fail mods with very low threat levels.

Junior Reviewers:
A moderately large group of people who can see pending submissions/updates and comment on them, etc.

IMO, I think there should be a fourth class for the lowest, people that just comment on the add-on.

Well, if we do deep brown townysis on the mods anyway, we could use statements as the metric instead of SLoC.

Yep, we do direct tokenization.

It doesn't make sense for this to be anything but either public or just the review team.
I don't know which it will be, but...

Well maybe if there is issues or bugs with an add-on and enough people comment on it, it sends a request to the maker of the add-on to update the add-on.

i mean, people will definitely be able to comment on the mod after release, that's a given

is an auto-updater implemented? if not, you should implement it asap so we don't have to continuously go to the website to download a simple update.

What I was saying is that if enough people complain about a bug then it should notify the author of the mod to fix the add-on.

There's no mirror of the client at all, so what is the point of adding an auto updater now?

if just one person complains about a bug it'll notify the author of the add-on.
this is practically a given...
