What this PR does / why we need it

Because of the new license it might not be immediately clear how the approval process works for maintainers. I'm adding a MAINTAINERS.md file to clarify that process and why it's needed and which sections of the license are relecant for it.

Which issue(s) this PR is related to

Fixes open-component-model/ocm-project#1085

I am confused. From what I am reading here, we will need two approval rounds?

  • 4.2. Draft. Each Pre-Draft document of a Working Group must first be Approved to become a "Draft Specification".
  • 4.3. Working Group Approval. [...] it will Approve that Draft Specification and progress it to "Approved Specification" status.

How will we do that?

I'm not sure I get the question. :)

How will we do that?

By... approving the spec?

BTW that process is separate from the main approval process and has nothing to do with approving changes to the spec. Hence, the wording For specification status transitions....
