+Thanks for considering contributing to LaTeX2e: feedback, fixes and
+ideas are all useful. Here, we ([The LaTeX3
+Project](https://www.latex-project.org)) have collected together a few
+pointers to help things along.
+
+## Bugs
+
+There are thousands of packages and tools and the LaTeX Project Team
+only supports a few dozen core packages beside the kernel code. We
+also don't maintain any tools or the TeX-engines themselves! So if a
+bug is due to code from a contributed third-party package then the LaTeX
+Project Team is not able to help or fix the code as that is maintained
+by others. As such, we ask you follow the procedure below as it will
+help to weed cases where we cannot help.
+
+To report a bug it is important to provide a short test file that
+exhibits the issue. The [`latexbug`](https://github.com/latex3/latexbug)
+package should be loaded at the very top of any such test file used to
+report a bug in LaTeX as follows:
+
+```latex
+\RequirePackage{latexbug} % <- first line
+\documentclass{article} % or some other class
+... % code showing the problem
+```
+
+If the `latexbug` package is not part of your distribution you can
+download it
+[GitHub](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/latex3/latexbug/master/latexbug.sty).
+In that case simply place it in the directory next to your test file (or
+place it into your local `texmf` tree so that it will be always found –
+how to do that depends on the installation you use).
+
+If `latexbug` complains about third-party packages you should first
+remove those from your test file. If that is not possible, then the
+bug is most likely in one of these packages and you should report the
+problem to the maintainers of the package instead of opening an issue
+here. However, if you think the bug is in core LaTeX (as maintained
+by the LaTeX Team) even though you need the third-party packages to
+demonstrate the problem, then please continue and send the bug report
+to us but explain this explicitly in your description of the bug.
+
+
+## Font related issues
+
+Problems that are clearly due to using a specific font setup or a
+specific font are normally out of scope as we do not maintain fonts
+for LaTeX and can't help with problems in that area. Especially with
+XeTeX and LuaTeX people may experience issues due to font usage that
+are either due to the font itself or to different versions or
+treatment on different platforms. So please use Computer Modern or
+Latin Modern fonts in the test files.
+
+
+
+## Layout and interface deficiencies
+
+Upfront we should probably stress that 'deficiencies' in the design of
+of the standard document classes (`article`, `report` and `book`) as
+well a questionable but long established interface behavior of commands
+is something that we will normally not change, even if we can all agree
+that a different behavior or a different layout would have been a better
+choice. You are, of course, welcome to report issues in these areas,
+using the procedure explained below, but in all likelihood such reports
+will be marked as 'won't fix'.
+
+The reason is is that the kernel interfaces and the document classes
+have been used for many years in essentially all documents (even
+documents using different classes often build them upon the standard
+classes in the background) and thus such changes would break or as a
+minimum noticeably change nearly all existing documents. See also the
+file [LaTeX2e News Issue
+07](https://www.latex-project.org/news/latex2e-news/ltnews07.pdf) with
+regard to this policy.
+
+## Code contributions
+
+If you want to discuss a possible contribution before (or instead of)
+making a pull request, drop a line to
+[the team](mailto:latex-team@latex-project.org).
+
+The stability of LaTeX is very important and this means that change in
+the kernel is necessarily very conservative. It also means that a lot of
+discussion happens before any changes are made. If you do decide to post
+a pull request, please bear this in mind: we do appreciate ideas, but
+cannot always integrate them into the kernel.
+
+If you are submitting a pull request, notice that
+
+- The first line of commit messages should be a short summary (up to about
+ 50 chars); leave a blank line then give more detail if required
+- We use Travis-CI for (light) testing so add `[ci skip]` to documentation-only
+ commit messages
+- We favour a single linear history so will rebase accepted pull requests
+- Where a commit fixes or closes an issue, please include this information
+ in the first line of the commit message [`(fixes #X)` or similar]
