We can look for talks that some PC members thought should be rejected but are in, or talks that other members gave a 5 star that are currently out. Moving around these talks will be the purpose of our meetings later this month.

I guess it is something around 5-star means “must have in the program”, and 1 star means “definitely reject”, with zero stars “not voted on”, but it would be great to reach some kind of common sense about this.
