Add contribution guidelines #46

Closed ChristophWWagner closed 5 years ago

ChristophWWagner commented 5 years ago

As github suggests it would be a very nice thing to introduce contribution guidelines and a code of conduct to (1) welcome new users to participate in the project and (2) to define some rough rules for living and extending fastmat.

Do you have suggestions on a particular guideline, what you want to see or what you don't?

Code of Conduct template: https://github.com/nayafia/contributing-template/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING-template.md

Example guideline: https://github.com/opengovernment/opengovernment/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

I'd like to suggest creating example documents in a separate branch and have contributions collected there. Please feel free to propose other ideas on how to proceed

As I found out we have some! In the wiki! We have a wiki! Constantly keep forgetting we actually have one...

We should move the contribution guidelines from the wiki to the codebase as CONTRIBUTING.md. If it's there it's visibility is much better.
