There’s been some talk about quality control of themes (and plugins) on WordPress.org. It all boils down to the fact that most of the themes out there look like crap and might even perform accordingly. People like Kevin Muldoon of WPMods make a case for a higher entry level for the themes directory on WordPress.org.
During the past few months many changes have come to the Theme Review process and scope for submissions to the WordPress Theme Directory. These guidelines are set in order to ensure newly submitted themes support current WordPress features and functionality. So whether you’re submitting a theme or looking to use one from this directory, you’ll know exactly what is expected for the licensing, code quality, documentation, functions and hooks, etc.
