+============================
+So You Want to Contribute...
+============================
+
+For general information on contributing to OpenStack, please check out the
+`contributor guide <https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/>`_ to get started.
+It covers all the basics that are common to all OpenStack projects: the accounts
+you need, the basics of interacting with our Gerrit review system, how we
+communicate as a community, etc.
+
+Below will cover the more project specific information you need to get started
+with Mistral.
+
+Communication
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* IRC channel #openstack-mistral at FreeNode
+* Mailing list (prefix subjects with ``[mistral]`` for faster responses)
+  http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-discuss
+
+Contacting the Core Team
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+   * Renat Akhmerov, PTL (#rakhmerov)
+   * Eyal Bar-Ilan (#eyalb)
+   * Oleg Ovcharuk (#vgvoleg)
+   * Andras Kovi (#akovi)
+   * Adriano Petrich (#apetrich)
+
+New Feature Planning
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you want to add new functionality to Mistral please file a blueprint
+by following https://blueprints.launchpad.net/mistral/+addspec
+
+We don't have a strict requirement to write a detailed specification for
+all new features and rather encourage more agile approach: just file a
+brief description of a feature in the form of blueprint and then send a
+patch to review (linking it to the blueprint). However, in some rare cases,
+like proposing new API or workflow language additions, we need a spec so
+that the team could fully understand what's going to be done and provide
+a feedback.
+
+To file a specification for a new feature, send a patch to
+https://opendev.org/openstack/mistral-specs that adds a new spec file
+for the needed release cycle (e.g. 'specs/victoria')
+
+The full list of the specs can be seen at
+https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/mistral-specs/
+
+Task Tracking
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We track our tasks in Launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mistral
+
+If you're looking for some smaller, easier work item to pick up and get started
+on, search for the 'low-hanging-fruit' tag.
+
+Reporting a Bug
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You found an issue and want to make sure we are aware of it? You can do so on
+`Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mistral>`_.
+
+Where to Make Code Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Mistral has a number of repositories where you can make code changes:
+
+* https://github.com/openstack/mistral
+* https://github.com/openstack/python-mistralclient
+* https://github.com/openstack/mistral-dashboard
+* https://github.com/openstack/mistral-extra
+* https://github.com/openstack/mistral-lib
+* https://github.com/openstack/mistral-specs
+
+Where to Review Code Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/mistral
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/python-mistralclient
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/mistral-dashboard
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/mistral-extra
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/mistral-lib
+* https://review.opendev.org/#/q/mistral-specs
+
+Getting Your Patch Merged
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Typically a patch can be merged when it has two +2 votes (at least two core
+members voted +2). In some rare emergency cases we allow one +2 vote before
+approving it.
+
+A patch cannot be merged if it has at least one negative vote!
+
+Project Team Lead Duties
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+All common PTL duties are enumerated in the `PTL guide
+<https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/ptl.html>`_.
