ACK 2fab9ff LGTM In the long run, and for a more dev‑friendly (for people who are visiting repository for the first time kinda) open source approach, we could take inspiration from this: https://github.com/paradigmxyz/reth/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md |

For SimplicityHL we probably want to be more friendly. For this crate, which is pretty low-level, I'd rather not be. In neither case do we want to find ourselves running a kindergarten for low-compentence "contributors" trying to pad their resumes by wasting our time. We also do not want any code of conduct, let alone one with explicitly named conduct police. If you think there's value in one we can use the one-line ESR If you are more annoying to work with than your contributions justify, you'll be ejected. one. Maybe it would discourage would-be conduct police from joining the project. |
36e9c44 add CONTRIBUTING.md (Andrew Poelstra) Pull request description: Adds a contributing.md file. Based on the one [in rust-simplicity](BlockstreamResearch/rust-simplicity#321) but I tried to be more friendly and to usefully redirect people, since we expect this repository to be the "point of first contact" for many would-be Simplicity developers.

If this looks good I'll replicate it for SimplicityHL and rust-elements. (simplicity-webide, simplicity-unchained, and other less-mature projects should probably have a different, less strict, policy.)
