Summary

Fixes T6347. This refines the "contributor guide" documents to basically lock down support further. Notable changes in policy:

  • Bugs: Emphasis on reproduction steps, strong emphasis on using Maniphest. Emphasis on what we support.
  • Features: Emphasis on describing problems instead of solutions, emphasis on realistic expecations about timelines. Strong emphasis on using Maniphest.
  • Code: Strong emphasis on coordinating with us first. No GitHub pull requests. Emphasis on us ignoring contributions we don't have time to deal with. Suggests local forks.
Test Plan

Read these through; let me generate them and take some screenshots for easier reading.

I like iron fist, but might come off harsh?

Yeah, I think the tone on that "iron fist" section could use a bit of pruning back in general, it comes off as a bit intense.

I am also a big fan of these docs... =D

"We acknowledge this model is better at some things and worse at some things than a more community-focused model."

(I think we're good here without adding more?)

  • Soften "iron fist".
  • Address inlines.
  • Put these in a separate section so they don't show up above the intro doc.
