There is no formal process (yet), but I would suggest that general agreement (or lack of disagreement) of this forum
(-advocacy)that the organisers are well enough known to be trusted and the proposed event is appropriate. 

Personally I have no doubts on either point in this instance, given that you and JD are involved. Anyone disagree?
