I appreciate you don't personally know, I don't know what is meant by "the thing is done" if that relates to a new submission method or just the particular sample submission in the first post link.
If is about that link, this is only one of several that have had submissions made weeks and months ago with no response or inclusion in the VPS updates. All we are hoping for is some way of prompting on long overdue submissions, if that means a few of the regular contributors/evangelists, etc. could have some means of contacting the Labs team with a link to that submission.
As the last thing anyone wants is long drawn out topics with complaints about a lack of action on submissions, it doesn't do anyone any good.
