Define development process for v2+

• fixes Design development model regarding branching/deployments #945
• fixes Add/update a contribution guide #929
• fixes Write down versioning / changing rules #858

---

This PR finalizes set of actions to start with a new branch-based development model. I haven't found any suitable fully automated model like https://github.com/googleapis/release-please-action that matches our needs.

Anyway, the version updates are automated so for now we just need to maintain a releasing PR manually (which might be a good thing in the end).

Hi @peterdesmet, can you please take a look? Once, it's merged we will have a free way to work on new versions I believe

[peterdesmet]

@roll I'll try to have a look this week. Can you already a a .github/CONTRIBUTING.md (a default place for such a guide) and link to the web page?

@peterdesmet
Thanks!

I will try to do so

@peterdesmet
Have you had a chance to take a look? Or you would just like me to move CONTRIBUTING.md first?

I haven't, it's on my todo 😄

Or you would just like me to move CONTRIBUTING.md first?

We could move it or make it easier have that file just refer to the (to be published) contributing guide on the website, cf. what I do here for the code of conduct: https://github.com/frictionlessdata/frictionless-r/blob/main/.github/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md

Agree, moved it to the repo root using a symlink

Dear @frictionlessdata/data-package-vote,

can you please also take a look as it's an important one

[PietrH]

Made some small textual suggestions, all in all quite clear.

datapackage/CONTRIBUTING.md

Line 99 in 8e4c6c0

1. A field type MUST NOT change default `format`. Example: does https://github.com/frictionlessdata/datapackage/pull/23 align with this?

I think posing a question in an example will be confusing, it's definitely confused me.

This looks great! Helps make a lot of things clear.

@peterdesmet @PietrH @khughitt
Thanks a lot for helping with it! I'm merging it-- it unblocks the further versions work
