Create a (or pick an existing) GitHub org, move towncrier to it, and grant more developers access

Lots of people want to use and contribute to towncrier. Enable this by making the towncrier development community inclusive by default instead of exclusive by default.

I think this is a good idea.
Towncrier feels very useful, but is lacking in many ways.
a few examples off the top of my head:

1. Support GitHub markdown output
2. Support callback for getting current project version (This can make towncrier a standard tool for projects in other languages as well and also make things more flexible for Python projects).

I second this idea.

I've submitted 3 pull requests (from Dec 19, 2019 to Jan 9, 2020) and none received a maintainer comment/review/... yet.

Note that I don't want to blame anyone and I know this is open source. Perhaps adding more maintainers or moving to an organization would help share the burden and make towncrier a healthier project for the future.

Towncrier has been moved to the Twisted organisation.
