Community contribution guidelines

[mowies]

Details

Put the new contribution policy into the contribution guide whereever it fits best. The policy should be documented in the contribution guide and referenced in CONTRIBUTING.md.

New Policy

• expected timeline for a ticket
  • we expect activity on the issue in form of code/research/etc. within a week after assignment of an issue
  • if there is 3 weeks of inactivity in a PR it will be closed and the corresponding issue unassigned
  • communication is key :) (either on the PR or on the issue)
• collaboration is always appreciated
• in general, you should work on one issue at a time
