Awesome start!
Some things I would love to see addressed in this readme:
- specifications, reference https://github.com/mongodb/specifications somehow, mention that this is the source of truth
- mention other repos that our team owns that are relevant, such as js-bson or kerberos

There's an initiative to move away from orchestration and start using mongodb-runner: https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DRIVERS-3335
Definitely think we should be providing latest guidance here as well, so let's update this to mongodb-runner.
