🐛 Bug: External link opens in the same tab instead of a new tab

[Surajiitmjnu]

Describe the bug

The “Contribute” button redirects users to an external website in the same browser tab instead of opening it in a new tab. As a result, the current page is replaced, and users lose their browsing context and scroll position.

Steps To Reproduce

1.Go to the JSON Schema home page. :https://json-schema.org/community
2.Scroll down to the Contribute section
3.Click on the button.
5.Observe that the link opens in the same browser tab instead of a new tab

Expected Behavior

The “Contribute ” button should open the external link in a new browser tab. This ensures that users remain on the JSON Schema home page and can easily return after viewing the meeting details.
