I have created the CONTRIBUTING.md file, please check if you consider it as sufficient or not.

hi @benjaminbolling. If it's sufficient for you, it's sufficient for me. Thanks! JOSS does not say anything about the quality or necessary contents of this Guide.

One comment, though: People raising issues in your Github repository usually do not have the rights to set labels (e.g. bug or enhancement). This is something the code maintainer has to do.
