    Hi Mikhail. Thanks for sharing this plugin with the community. While reviewing the code, I spotted couple of not-really-serious issues and reported them into your tracker. I also asked our plagiarism API expert Dan Marsden for a peer-review of your code so he might provide you with more valuable feedback. Thanks for your patience with the review and approval process.

    Thanks David - personally I think issues #1 and #4 should block approval, I also think the overall quality of the code should be improved before we accept this. Especially as there is a commercial aspect to this plugin the expectations of code quality and stability should be quite high.

    The bigger issue I have is that this plugin relies on the legacy logs feature being enabled which has been deprecated since Moodle 2.7 - this is not documented within the plugin and I don't think we should approve any new plugins in the official repository that rely on deprecated functions. I have previously communicated this to Unplag and provided examples of the correct usage of the new events api.

    Thanks Dan for the comments. I agree and I believe Mikhail will be happy to improve the plugin according these suggestions. Marking as needing more work for now.

    I fixed all issues created on github bug tracker. I'll implement new events api in next release of the plugin.
