[Geotools-devel] Updated contributor guide to reflect small-patch policy

[Ben Caradoc-D. <Ben...@cs...>]

Jody,

here is an update for the contributor guide to reflect the small patch 
policy, as discussed at Monday's committee meeting:
https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/212

- Patches that add new files require a contributor agreement, small 
patches to existing files do not.
- A little rewording to remove duplication.

Everyone else, are you happy with this policy? The new contributor 
agreement focussed us on this detail; we had to draw the line somewhere, 
and here it is.

Kind regards,

--
