Haha, the LWN article about the credit and contributions policy actually came out on May 13, not May 20! Here is a free subscriber link:
Please share with anyone who might be interested in reducing their open source project maintenance burden. :)
Maria will be giving an update on this project at in the OS WG session at the upcoming RIPE meeting:
Looking forward to getting more feedback and seeing your suggestions and changes!

Hi all,
I'm happy to say that, thanks to Maria Matějka, the guide to creating
a contributions and credit policy is up on GitHub and ready for PRs:
https://github.com/contribution-credit/policy
Feel free to share this starting now, but the "official" launch will
be May 20, when Linux Weekly News publishes an article on the policy
guide.
We are open to improvements of all sorts, and especially additions to
the list of projects that already have such a policy:
https://github.com/contribution-credit/policy/blob/main/policies.md
And of course you can check out our own contributions and credit policy :)
https://github.com/contribution-credit/policy/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md
Thanks again to Maria Matějka for many contributions, edits,
structural improvements, and creating the GitHub repo, Marcos Sanz and
Martin White for early support and important input, and many others
from the OS WG for their input. If you'd like to add yourself as a
named contributor or update your entry on the credits, please do!
Valerie
