+# Contributing
+
+## Mailing list
+
+The main communication tool we use is a mailing list:
+* <yocto@yoctoproject.org>
+* <https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto>
+
+Feel free to ask any kind of questions but always prepend your email subject
+with "[meta-raspberrypi]". This is because we use the 'yocto' mailing list and
+not a perticular 'meta-raspberrypi' mailing list.
+
+## Patches and pull requests
+
+All the contributions should be compliant with the openembedded patch
+guidelines: <http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Commit_Patch_Message_Guidelines>
+
+To contribute to this project you should send pull requests to the github mirror
+(<https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi>). **Additionally** you can send
+the patches for review to the above specified mailing list.

+
+    git format-patch -s --subject-prefix='meta-raspberrypi][PATCH' origin
+
+When sending patches to the mailing list, please use something like:

+

+issue number in the commit log just before "Signed-off-by" line(s). Example line
