Description
Page or section
docs/maintainer-retainer/ (new documentation section in devex)
Issue description
There is currently no centralized documentation in dev-ex explaining the Maintainer Retainer Program (MRP), its purpose, or the distinction between Core Maintainers and Community Maintainers.
Intersect OSO requested a reusable documentation draft to be reviewed in dev-ex before extending similar content to MRP-supported project repositories.
Proposed change
Add a new documentation file under a dedicated docs folder (e.g. docs/maintainer-retainer/maintainer-retainer.md) that includes:
- A brief overview of the Maintainer Retainer Program
- Definition of Core Maintainers
- Definition of Community Maintainers
- A link to the official OSC / Intersect MRP page as the source of truth
- Guidance that individual maintainer names should be managed externally (via OSC) to avoid stale repository documentation
