"Yes" votes from >=50% of the sitting TalkBoard are now required in order to win approval. That was another change specifically to ensure that proposals have solid support before they can be approved. Or you could be cynical and say that I bought a vote or two from the super-majority advocates by adding that provision. Just kidding: I added that part to close what I considered to be a loophole in the procedures.
