[Bigbang-dev] BigBang project code of conduct

[Niels ten Oever]

Hi all,

Perhaps we can have something like an ombudsteam with one core maintainer and one non-core maintainer? 

Perhaps Nick and Corinne? We could indicate their addresses so that if someone has issues with Nick, they can take it up with Corinne?

I agree it is odd that if someone has issues with me, their complaint lands in my mailbox.

Happy to discuss.

Niels
