+HOW TO CONTRIBUTE PATCHES TO OpenSSL
+------------------------------------
+
+(Please visit https://www.openssl.org/community/getting-started.html for
+other ideas about how to contribute.)
+
+Development is coordinated on the openssl-dev mailing list (see the
+above link or https://mta.openssl.org for information on subscribing).
+If you are unsure as to whether a feature will be useful for the general
+OpenSSL community you might want to discuss it on the openssl-dev mailing
+list first. Someone may be already working on the same thing or there
+may be a good reason as to why that feature isn't implemented.
+
+To submit a patch, make a pull request on GitHub. If you think the patch
+could use feedback from the community, please start a thread on openssl-dev
+to discuss it.
+
+Having addressed the following items before the PR will help make the
+acceptance and review process faster:
+
+ 1. Anything other than trivial contributions will require a contributor
+ licensing agreement, giving us permission to use your code. See
+ https://www.openssl.org/policies/cla.html for details.
+
+ 2. All source files should start with the following text (with
+ appropriate comment characters at the start of each line and the
+ year(s) updated):
+
+ Copyright 20xx-20yy The OpenSSL Project Authors. All Rights Reserved.
+
+ Licensed under the OpenSSL license (the "License"). You may not use
+ this file except in compliance with the License. You can obtain a copy
+ in the file LICENSE in the source distribution or at
+ https://www.openssl.org/source/license.html
+
+ 3. Patches should be as current as possible; expect to have to rebase
+ often. We do not accept merge commits; You will be asked to remove
+ them before a patch is considered acceptable.
+
+ 4. Patches should follow our coding style (see
+ https://www.openssl.org/policies/codingstyle.html) and compile without
+ warnings. Where gcc or clang is available you should use the
+ --strict-warnings Configure option. OpenSSL compiles on many varied
+ platforms: try to ensure you only use portable features.
+ Clean builds via Travis and AppVeyor are expected, and done whenever
+ a PR is created or updated.
+
+ 5. When at all possible, patches should include tests. These can
+ either be added to an existing test, or completely new. Please see
+ test/README for information on the test framework.
+
+ 6. New features or changed functionality must include
+ documentation. Please look at the "pod" files in doc/apps, doc/crypto
+ and doc/ssl for examples of our style.
