Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request modifies the CODEOWNERS file to explicitly include README.md under the purview of the documentation team and maintainers.
