    Subject: Utilizing GitHub .CODEOWNERS files

    Thanks to @udo and @nabarunnag the conversations and ideas around having
    better review processes and review quality.

    TL;DR - Adding GitHub CODEOWNERS[1] to geode-examples, eye toward adding to
    GEODE

    GitHub provides a mechanism of assigning code ownership to specific
    owners/committers based on file pattern-matching (similar to .gitignore).
    Owners are automatically added as reviewers to pull-requests against their
    described areas. This, coupled with our review requirements[2], could
    really help us get the right eyes on prospective code changes.

    I intend to add this file to the apache/geode-examples repository, tagging
    myself and a few volunteers to different code areas, and checking the
    results. If we like it, we can move on to doing the same to Geode.

    Will anyone volunteer to get code-reviews for geode-examples changes (that
    we won't merge) ?

    Thanks,
    -Robert Houghton
