It was blocked by Nicolas as the procedure to determine the general 
assembly was not fully decided.

It was just discussed at the in person meeting, our documentation states 
otherwise and I think we should stick to the documentation here. It 
doesn't make that much sense to filter out people who have majority 
documentation commits either--20 documentation commits is still a 
significant enough contribution.

See updated patch.
