<br>
Looking through the checklist- I can see a developer guide but not an<br>
obvious contributing guide. I would consider contributions to<br>
encompass small bug fixes (even documentation) so I think it would be<br>
good to include something that explains how people can and should get<br>
involved. Similarly I don't see a code of conduct.<br>
<br>
I don't see license headers on many pages- and while that may not be a<br>
requirement of the BSD it helps for code transparency, particularly if<br>
people end up on a GitHub page when searching.<br>
<br>
Hope that helps<br>
<br>
Jo<br>
