Code Review
This pull request adds a 'Verified Digital Public Good' badge to the README.md file. The reviewer suggested improving the Markdown maintainability by using reference-style links, enhancing accessibility with more descriptive alt text, and moving the badge to a more prominent location under the main title.

The badge URL is quite long due to the embedded SVG, which makes the Markdown source harder to read and maintain. Using reference-style links would keep the text clean. Additionally, using a more descriptive alt text like Verified Digital Public Good improves accessibility for screen readers.
Regarding your note on placement: since this is a verification status badge, it is typically placed more prominently, such as immediately following the main title (# OpenSPP Registry) rather than after the introductory paragraph.
