Module owners absolutely have a say on what lands in their module. If we
don't have the resources or the willingness at the engineering level to
maintain code provided by a 3rd party it should not be in our
repository. So it's your call Tim (and Vivien's), but rubber stamping
doesn't seem the right thing to do here. I would support Paul suggestion
instead.
