+## Overview
+
+RabbitMQ projects use pull requests to discuss, collaborate on and accept code contributions.
+Pull requests is the primary place of discussing code changes.
+
+## The Process
+
+The process is fairly standard:
+
+ * Fork the repository or repositories you plan on contributing to
+ * Clone [RabbitMQ umbrella repository](https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-public-umbrella)
+ * `cd umbrella`, `make co`
+ * Create a branch with a descriptive name in the relevant repositories
+ * Make your changes, run tests, commit with a [descriptive message](http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html), push to your fork
+ * Submit pull requests with an explanation what has been changed and **why**
+ * Submit a filled out and signed [Contributor Agreement](https://github.com/rabbitmq/ca#how-to-submit) if needed (see below)
+ * Be patient. We will get to your pull request eventually
+
+If what you are going to work on is a substantial change, please first ask the core team
+of their opinion on [RabbitMQ mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/rabbitmq-users).
+
+
+## (Brief) Code of Conduct
+
+In one line: don't be a dick.
+
+Be respectful to the maintainers and other contributors. Open source contributors
+put long hours into developing projects and doing user support that are then
+available for free. We believe this deserves some respect.
+
+Be respectful to people of all races, genders, religious beliefs and
+political views. Regardless of how brilliant a pull request is
+technically, we will not tolerate disrespectful or aggressive
+behaviour.
+
+Contributors who violate this straightforward Code of Conduct will see
+their pull requests closed and locked.
+
+
+## Contributor Agreement
+
+If you want to contribute a non-trivial change, please submit a signed copy of our
+[Contributor Agreement](https://github.com/rabbitmq/ca#how-to-submit) around the time
+you submit your pull request. This will make it much easier (in some cases, possible)
+for the RabbitMQ team at Pivotal to merge your contribution.
+

+## Getting Help
