Write "thou shalt not" guidelines for committers

[gregdek]

At the Ansible Contributor Summit, it became clear that we don't have good enough social guidelines for what core contributors "should" and "shouldn't" do. We need to write these guidelines, socialize them amongst the team, and get sign off, so that we can start adding more core contributors to ansible/ansible.

Have you started a doc or anything on this? If not, I'd be happy to get some of it going or work with you on it. I'd like to get something posted in the next couple of days so we can kick this lose.

[gregdek]

mckerrj, jimi-c said you were on this, so I'm assigning to you.

This should probably be a PR in ansible/ansible for the new "docs/proposals" directory or whatever we decide.

[gregdek]

In fact, rather than just say "hey whatever we decide," let's go ahead and create docs/proposals in ansible/ansible, with this as the first proposal.

Note: The title of this should probably be more specific to "committers" -- not contributors. Happy to edit the issue title to reflect :)

[gregdek]

Done.

[gregdek]

Robyn and I have both made comments. We should probably circle back to hammer out a final draft together this week if possible.

[gregdek]

Still undergoing internal review.

[gregdek]

Internal review complete; now waiting on @mckerrj to publish.

Thanks @mckerrj! This is now being debated in the PR itself.
