| 3 | +## Thank You |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +First off, thanks for contributing to the devguide of the Python programming |
| 6 | +language! Even if your contribution is not ultimately accepted, the fact you |
| 7 | +put time and effort into helping out is greatly appreciated. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +## Contribution Guidelines |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +Please read this [devguide](https://devguide.python.org/) for |
| 13 | +guidance on how to contribute to this project. The documentation covers |
| 14 | +everything from how to build the code to submitting a pull request. There are |
| 15 | +also suggestions on how you can most effectively help the project. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +Please be aware that our workflow does deviate slightly from the typical GitHub |
| 18 | +project. Details on how to properly submit a pull request are covered in |
| 19 | +[Lifecycle of a Pull Request](https://devguide.python.org/pullrequest/). |
| 20 | +We utilize various bots and status checks to help with this, so do follow the |
| 21 | +comments they leave and their "Details" links, respectively. The key points of |
| 22 | +our workflow that are not covered by a bot or status check are: |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +- All discussions that are not directly related to the code in the pull request |
| 25 | + should happen on bugs.python.org |
| 26 | +- Upon your first non-trivial pull request (which includes documentation changes), |
| 27 | + feel free to add yourself to [`Misc/ACKS`](https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Misc/ACKS) |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +## Setting Expectations |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +Due to the fact that this project is entirely volunteer-run (i.e. no one is paid |
| 33 | +to work on Python full-time), we unfortunately can make no guarantees as to if |
| 34 | +or when a core developer will get around to reviewing your pull request. |
| 35 | +If no core developer has done a review or responded to changes made because of a |
| 36 | +"changes requested" review, please feel free to email python-dev to ask if |
| 37 | +someone could take a look at your pull request. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +## Code of Conduct |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +All interactions for this project are covered by the |
| 43 | +[PSF Code of Conduct](https://www.python.org/psf/codeofconduct/). Everyone is |
| 44 | +expected to be open, considerate, and respectful of others no matter their |
| 45 | +position within the project. |
