Responsible Person/Mentor

[jdittrich]

Story: As SO interested in contributing with my design work I want to know who can brief me and how to get stated
Current state: Some tasks have only a very vague description ("improve usability of…") and no person to talk to to get a specification of the job

Suggestion: Let’s add a field like "contact", "mentor" or "Questions" to the basic template/form of presentation

[jancborchardt]

Yes, great point. We need a contact within the project who is willing to intro the designer. Let’s call it »Contact«.

A link to contributors.md as well maybe?

[jdittrich]

Linking contributors.md is not bad, but it would leave the open-source-designer-to-be in an uncertain and possibly awkward position (who of all these people is still active? Who cares for design?)
I assume if a project wants/needs help from a designer it should be possible to have some person or at least some person(s) to talk to.

[simonv3]

Yeah, I think both can be included. What I've done in the PR is indicate contributing.md and contributors.md as optional in the template, but not done so in contacts.

Closing this due to inactivity for almost two years. And it seems to have achieved some progress!
