Marked version: 0.3.17

Description

We haven't addressed a formal governance pattern yet, having said that, since inception, Marked has been operating under something that looks like the benevolent dictator for life model, which can work pretty well when the dictator is active and available (product owners, so to speak, must be responsive).

The project seems to have tried to move, not explicitly, toward liberal and consensus-based models. Which can also work, when all the committers are active and responsive in the reviews. (However, getting 100% consensus can cause so much pain and delay over a single word on a page...I've literally been in a meeting where we had a 45 minute debate over whether to use a word and comma in a four page document...in order to gain 100% consensus.)

Think by adding game dynamics to the AUTHORS and badges we can cover a lot of ground. Meritocracy - community driven. Those who contribute more should end up being the ones who end up with authority. And so on.

If you have questions or comments about the game dynamics or maybe something you think isn't covered, say the word. Otherwise, it's easy to change in future, but I think this covers a lot of ground.

I'm feeling some pull to do a next step on this. So, no super rush, but might end up merging in a day or two just the same.

## Publishers

Publishers are admins who also have the responsibility, privilege, and burden of publishing the new releases to NPMJS and performing outreach and external stakeholder communications. Further, when things go pear-shaped, they're the ones taking most of the heat. Finally, when things go well, they're the primary ones praising the contributors who made it possible.

<blockquote>
"The main characteristic of the DevOps movement is to strongly advocate automation and monitoring at all steps of software construction, from integration, testing, releasing to deployment and infrastructure management. DevOps aims at shorter development cycles, increased deployment frequency, more dependable releases, in close alignment with business objectives." ~[Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DevOps)
