Community Code-Amendment Best Practices

• Don't commit directly to master, make PRs.
• PRs should be reviewed and be required to have a +1 from non-contributor to the PR.
• PRs should have corresponding tests.
• PRs should include documentation. Documentation should be kept with its relevant code to minimize drift.
• Autogenerated code should not be committed.
• Correct known trip-wires (little annoyances, mistakes, gotchas) immediately - quick fixes pay off dividends.
• Prefix branch name with creator's initials.
• As new items come up, add to TODO.
• Maximize code reuse, minimize service directory size and complexity
