19 i think the approach "one yes beats all no-es" makes more sense as there
20 still is one person who can handle the pull request. up to that, the yes
21 might come from a main maintainer and the no from inactive ones... or
22 the opposite... so i guess it might be better to take it as a hint
23 rather than a rule as the outcome might be various.
