After more thought I went back to this first suggestion, and put "please
do not create pull requests" at the start of the CONTRIBUTING file,
going back to plain-text format. Although this is not as spiffy-looking
on GitHub, it should be good enough to address what remains of the
original problem.
There is some advantage to sticking with plain text over Markdown as
tzdb already has two other markup formats - HTML5, and man pages - and
proliferation of markup formats has its own problems. Had GitHub
supported CONTRIBUTING.html it might have been a different matter.
I did leave a few Markdownisms in CONTRIBUTING (when they look fine in
text too), and backported some of the minor improvements to CONTRIBUTING
that I had made to the Markdown version.
I'm attaching both a 'git diff -b' between last week's CONTRIBUTING and
the new, and the newly-installed proposed patches.
