Congrats on merging your first pull request! 🎉 We here at The InnerSource Commons are proud of you! 💖 Thank you so much for your contribution 🎁

@spier Yes. Contribution process was very easy. Thank you. I'm re-reading the entire patterns book again and may have other PRs. This one was the gateway PR and felt very nitpicky but thank you for merging it. Cheers.

That's great @jmeridth. Looking forward to any and all contributions that you want to make.

And no worry about nitpicking, if we really don't want to make a change that you are suggesting, we can just talk about that in any future PRs. No harm done, quite the opposite actually, as it is always great to have somebody with fresh eyes read our patterns again!

Btw your change is not live in https://patterns.innersourcecommons.org/p/common-requirements yet. Not sure how much delay we should expect there. Will confirm with the gitbook service (which is where we are hosting our book).
