After around three month, I got two of my Add-ons approved. Booth came with the message:
Reviewer:

Comments:
Thank you for your contribution. This version has been approved using a streamlined review process.
So, what is this “streamlined review process”; what does it mean in terms of review quality and future review times? The only documents I could find were about (random and limited?) automated reviews of updates.
Also, isn’t Andreas Wagner an admin reviewer? Does him sending this message mean that both my Add-ons were in the admin review queue?
AMO is making changes to the review process to speed up reviews and reduce/eliminate waiting times.
While that is happening, in order to cater for the addons that are waiting the review, “streamlined review process” was introduced by the Admin. I do not have the details but I am guessing that addons that did not raise any flags were passed with less than usual in depth review of all aspects of the addon and its code.
