Overview of Proposal
Hyperledger would benefit from a common repo structure which presents the same elements consistently. This includes:
- README
- SECURITY
- CODEOWNERS
- CODE_OF_CONDUCT
- CONTRIBUTING
- LICENSE
- MAINTAINERS
- NOTICES
Formal Proposal(s)
Adopt repolinter with a policy as in Fabric PR#630. Each repo will add the same repolint.json file and the CA team (or preferably CI) will periodically run a check to ensure projects are in compliance. Additionally, we should establish a template repository that has LICENSE, NOTICE, CoC and Security default files.
