Martin published the documentation to manage secrets on PR #8000

Martin asked CS&S to grant access to our @tfmorris (Core Team Member) as Admin so he can self-manage the certificate. Martin mentioned that Core Dev Team roles are defined by our governance and represent committed long-term contributors to OpenRefine

Kena will review with CS&S leadership how we can add a volunteer without a contractual relationship with CS&S as an admin.
