Research direction

No files, tests, or code entry points are mentioned. Start by reviewing the current GitHub project ownership and the requirements for a GitHub organization or GitLab group. Done means frog-protocols has moved to a collaborative namespace with transparent membership and administration.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

At this point, it's unclear whether frog-protocols is just @misyltoad or if there are more folks engaged, involved, or invited to participate. Some of this is because it's brand-new, but also some of this is that projects under a personal namespace on GitHub are awkward for collaborative development.

I would like to suggest that frog-protocols moves to a GitHub organization (or GitLab group) so that it's easier to set up collaborative maintenance and make it more transparent who is part of the project and administering things.

It would also probably make people feel more at ease to engage when it appears to be set up more like a multi-stakeholder project.
