+# Contributing to ISA-L
+
+Everyone is welcome to contribute. Patches may be submitted using GitHub pull
+requests (PRs). All commits must be signed off by the developer (--signoff)
+which indicates that you agree to the Developer Certificate of Origin.  Patch
+discussion will happen directly on the GitHub PR. Design pre-work and general
+discussion occurs on the [mailing list]. Anyone can provide feedback in either
+location and all discussion is welcome. Decisions on whether to merge patches
+will be handled by the maintainer.
+
