[Openstack-track-chairs] reset statistics when a talk is moved

Kyle, if you look at the talk in question, there's no reason (that I can see) for the -1.

Can you?

So I have no idea where that person rated it -1. Was it because he felt it was a product pitch, or because he (or she) felt it lacked content? Was it because it was inappropriate in the track where he (or she) rated it?

Or am I supposed to email that reviewer and ask? Or should we mandate that -1's should have reasons?

All options, not sure what the right one is.
