couple of things otherwise lgtm, thanks for taking this on @orbeckst, would have taken me a while given all the other mdakits fixes we need to do...

MDAnalysis thanks [NumFOCUS][] for its continued support as our fiscal sponsor and
the [Chan Zuckerberg Initiative][] for supporting MDAnalysis under EOSS4 and EOSS5 awards.

This may be up for discussion, but as the guy that has to go through really tedious releases, I was wondering if it would be ok for me to be the person signing off on release things on behalf of the team?

What I mean here is that it's always a major technical undertaking that doesn't get a mention in the notes/changelog because it happens outside the scope of it - so it's multiple FTE days of hidden work unless we don't make it hidden (happy to go with alternative solutions or be completely shot down)

Fine with me, Whoever does the work.

I added your name and then also linked to the team page , does this look reasonable?

Need to check again that it builds properly and that links are working but content should be ok.

- all deprecations
- links to role list instead of role description
- MDAKits with links

Adding in a caveat for the lack of python 3.13 support in conda-forge right now.
