Thanks, Michael, that's really useful; it'll definitely give me something to
think over, but initially, I like the idea of different people having
approval say over some component (like Josh and anything GRC or Achilleas
and gr-trellis [if he'd want to]), which would ease the burden on me to make
sure everything is good.

BTW: I just updated my master branch on my github account. I'll try to
remember to keep it up.

Tom
