I probably had that many issues with my first attempt at a package, but i ironed most of those out with consultations on the list before submitting mine.  I would suggest we reserve judgement until we find out if "kalyanit" is making an attempt to reach out for tutoring.  Maybe it is being lazy, or maybe he had trouble with the source that he didn't know how to get around.  The bigger question for me is why would we even bother with a package that only duplicates what is already available in a native application bundle.

Sounds reasonable.  I won't close the entry out just yet, pending the
possibility of having the submission done the right way.
