Note: after discusison on today's maintainers call, it was decided to:

Have Maintainers role documented in the docs (not on the Dronecode website)
Sign-up process will not be automated, and will be managed manually
Onboarding process will be documented here as well

~~@mrpollo can you confirm?~~ Confirmed

- Now this looks better/organized!

I've subedited. Makes sense to me. I'm assuming @mrpollo will merge/approve the "technical content"
