Right now on https://recipes.coopcloud.tech/recipes.json (which will soon have a web UI @ https://recipes.coopcloud.tech) you can't tell who is using the recipe & who is maintaining the recipe.

This would be super useful to have in the JSON blob with a name & potentially contact details (matrix handle, email?) so that people considering to use the recipe could get in touch with those already using it and/or taking care of it!

This would help facilitate more direct connects between potential users/maintainers. People could just freely get in touch & see how to best to co-operate on keeping the recipe going.

How would this work?

we need to add a new format to the recipe READMES. e.g. in bca2a983c0/README.md alongside the Category, Status, etc.
we need to teach abra to parse that and add it to the recipes.json
we need to get this into the design of the new web UI for the catalogue

Proposals for README format?

* **Users**: <autonomic helo@autonomic.zone>, <othercoop helo@othercoop.com>
* **Maintainers**: <autonomic helo@autonomic.zone>
