Re: [BuildStream] Re-structure of BuildStream Gitlab policy document

Just one comment below.

For the other points, I will leave it a few days and let others potentially chip 
in to the discussion, before summarizing what we've discussed and agreed, going 
back to the MR and making the changes or maybe even closing it and submitting an 
MR to CONTRIBUTING on master instead.

I think we may have been talking at cross purposes here because...it's very odd 
if you get emails for label changes because I do not, and no-one I've asked does 
either. I'm set to 'Watch - you will receive notifications for any activity' for 
all repos in the BuildStream group.

With this in mind I do feel like keeping the WIP/status board is acceptable, as 
long as we take the other actions.
