ChatGPT plugin submissions up nearly 10x this year, 3x again after DevDay, review waits hit 2 weeks

A retweet of mxstbr on the plugin ecosystem:
- ChatGPT plugin submissions have grown nearly 10x since the start of the year;
- After DevDay sparked a surge of interest, submissions 3x'ed again;
- The review team can't keep up — current feedback ETA is about 2 weeks.
The team has declared a temporary "code red": relaxing some nice-to-have review requirements to raise throughput, expecting to clear the backlog in about a week. Other measures:
- Showing the ETA directly in the submission portal;
- Automating more review checks so developers get immediate feedback without waiting on humans;
- (truncated in the post) at least one more measure.
Plugin developers should hear back within days as the backlog clears.
