Draft: Iterate on handbook process change communication
Why is this change being made?
Oftentimes the handbook is leveraged as a way to define and scope processes that teams follow. These processes impact many team members across the organization, yet we do not have a clear and concise way of communicating these changes.
This MR aims to rectify this by creating an MR Template that helps define a lightweight process to help get the word out about a given change.
