| Feb 24, 2011 at 4:38 | comment | added | Eran Galperin | we have a page detailing the general submissions criteria for packages on our service at binpress.com/page/publishing-components . We will be adding individual pages for each language with resources to the specific standards for each language. | |

| Feb 18, 2011 at 8:18 | comment | added | Eran Galperin | I am one of the co-founders at Binpress, and I agree with your concern regarding random snippets of code. For that reason we manually review and approve every package that is published on our site to make sure it complies with coding conventions and standards and that it actually works. We also give a 14 day money-back guarantee buyers who are not satisfied with the package they purchased. | |

I just checked code canyon, the top sellers there seem to have thousands of sales. Actually, if they put out crap, then they'd get a bad name, so it is in their own interest to put up good code (at least "working correctly" type of code, if not "most efficient" type). So it does seem to be working. | |
