  • Replace Planemo Code of Conducts with Galaxy's for consistency and because @tnabtaf is a better point person than me.
  • Add a project governance document (tl;dr @jmchilton can do whatever he wants until someone cool asks him to stop).

How about:
The BDFN position only exists because the developers of the project believe it is currently too small to support full and open governance at this time. In order to ...
