Isn't this list of all maintainers, not only lead ones?

To me, "alumni" are past maintainers, but some of us are still active in that list!

@pquentin What's better phrasing? "Meet our maintainers since 2008"?

Updated, lmk what you think. :)

I reworked the README a bit more, taking more of the phrasing we started using in the docs landing page ("Much of the Python ecosystem already uses urllib3 and you should too"), and I merged the intro example into the Documentation section now called "Getting Started" which I think is fairly idiomatic these days for READMEs. Again, feel free to push back on any of these changes but please take another look. |

Added a point about security to the features and another note about our maintainers. I want to highlight that urllib3 prioritizes security/safety/longevity in ways that most other projects don't, not sure this is sufficient but perhaps a good starting point.

I don't feel very strongly about this change, feel free to close for now and stew on it for later iterations. Just wanted to get something pushed from our discussion.
