ya'll validate mods to make sure that they're sorta well-representative of phpBB? ie. any mod released here is something that could be added, at any moment, to the actual phpBB code, and that ya'll don't want badly written or incompatable code potentially added?
as for the first part... no - all i know about MOD validation is what i've extrapolated on my own, heh.

seeing as at no point in time any MOD will ever be incorporated into phpBB
we validate to ensure that the MOD
1. will run on the minimum system requirements of phpBB (php3.0.9)
2. ensures it uses the DB
3. ensures compliancy of the implementation of the MOD Template for automatic installs
4. checks the codes to ensure given functionality
5. helps to ensure the security aspects of MODs
6. helps to ensure two MODs won't clash
7. all round makes sure the MOD is correct in everyway
you should really read this http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=218440

@sora8196 uncalled for, that belongs in the testin gforum
ask in the support forum or something, it's probably in the userguide, anyway this thread is not the place.

I'd like to endorse what wEric said and to add my thanks.
The mod validation team has been incredibly responsive. Not only did they work thorugh and validate 5 spearate mods that I had submitted within a month of submission, but when I submitted a couple of upgrades to mods recently, they validated those within 24 hours of submission.
Superb job, guys.

I submitted a MOD called Welcome Panel On Index some days ago.... can u tell me if it's going to be validated or refused??? Last version I submitted should be 1.1.1 (the previous one I submitted, that is 1.0.0 had been refused)
Its only been 7 days. Please wait atleast a Month. It is there though.

I'm perplexed how you think that isn't a release thread
The first one is a MOD-Database link, but the database just links over to Area51.
The second one was supposed to be a support thread (not a download) if Area51 went down, but wGEric closed it because it was being overused.
Just go to Area51. You might be interested in trying out the phpBB 2.2 board, it's really coming along!
