[Bigbang-dev] Governance document changes

[Niels ten Oever]

Hi Sebastian,

I like this addition and I don't think we need to add much else. But if
you want to measure more coordination activities, one could also add
stats on opening and closing tickets as well as mailinglist traffic. But
I guess this is a bit of a rabbit hole :)

Cheers,

Niels
