Were members of the release team represented in this BoF?

Sure, Luk was here, and didn't express any disagreement. Actually, I
tried hard to give several opportunities to raise concerns, but
everybody apparently really agreed with the proposal.

Hrm, ok...  well, I still disagree, but I seem to be overruled :)

FWIW I agree with Steve here. I think a package should be identified as 'broken' in order to force removal. Obviously an allowance needs to be made for packages with really low popcon scores as it's possible that no-one cares enough to report anything.
