+- General provider guidance e.g.
+  - Pact fetching guidance (local, broker etc.)
+  - how to setup `pactffi_verifier_set_provider_info` and `pactffi_verifier_add_provider_transport` effectively to support multiple transports
+  - state handlers, request filters
+- FFI calls
+- Transports (multiple, how they work, default host/port)
+- State Handlers (setup/teardown, use as hooks, and behaviour if there are no states)

+- Maintainer meetings (how to stay in touch. Slack, Zoom monthly etc.)
+- Roadmap (Where to find it, how to contribute to it, RFC process)
+- Criteria for an implementation to be accepted into pact-foundation
+  - License should be MIT
+  - 2 maintainers (?)
+  - Agree to our community guidelines
+  - ...?
