Ideally we would get every single contributor to agree, although if there is a minimum threshold is perhaps open to debate?
@peterjc Once we get approval from the more frequent contributors, I'll ping more people from https://github.com/galaxyproject/planemo/graphs/contributors . |

@mr-c Can you formally approve please? You have contributed a couple of commits some time ago. |
