community: CONTRIBUTING, CODE_OF_CONDUCT, GOVERNANCE, templates, license notice - #20
Merged
Conversation
…OWNERS, license notice Week 9 (OSS licensing & foundations): fill the Community Standards checklist. CONTRIBUTING covers setup/tests/bug-filing/PR conventions/ review expectations plus an explicit contribution-licensing clause: the repo is AGPL-3.0 while the same app ships on the Mac App Store, which only works because the maintainer holds copyright, so inbound contributions grant App Store distribution too. CODE_OF_CONDUCT is Contributor Covenant 2.1 verbatim. GOVERNANCE documents the honest BDFL model, what a no looks like, and the path to shared maintainership. README gains the copyright line (year + holder) the license lacked and a License section explaining the AGPL choice. SECURITY.md intentionally not duplicated here: it is on the ci/scorecard-hardening branch (PR #13).

What
Fills the rest of GitHub's Community Standards checklist (week 9 of OpenLab): CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md (Contributor Covenant 2.1 verbatim), GOVERNANCE.md (honest BDFL), bug/feature issue templates, What/Why/How/Test PR template, CODEOWNERS, plus the README copyright line + License section the stock AGPL text lacked.
Why
Community profile was 42% (README + LICENSE only). With SECURITY.md from #13 and these files, the checklist goes green.
Notable
CONTRIBUTING.md carries an inbound-licensing clause: this repo is AGPL-3.0 while the same app ships on the Mac App Store, which only works while the maintainer can license every line, so contributions include an App Store distribution grant.
Test
Docs-only change; CI matrix runs on the PR.
