[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Point potential contributors to the Roadmap (PR #6543)

[Minh Nguyễn]

@1ec5 commented on this pull request.

The roadmap is something I put together based on discussions with various folks, not just contributors to this project. It’s in a separate repository to give maintainers like @tomhughes a bit of breathing room. Even so, you have a pretty important say about what goes in, since obviously it would be a work of fiction otherwise. It’s intended to be a resource rather than a specification, so if we need to correct or course-correct, that’s an important conversation to have.

> +Before spending any significant time, we recommend that you create an issue
+or a draft PR that communicates your intention clearly.
+Make sure that you have buy-in from the maintainers and you will have a
+much easier time getting your code merged.

Some people keep thinking have to ask for an issue to get assigned to them. We have a note about that just above here, but it probably needs to have more nuance. Basically, most bug reports are pretty straightforward, but feature requests really need buy-in about the concept and design before diving in too deep.
