-## Ζ
+* Please read the [Coding Convention](/docs/CODING_CONVENTION.md).
+* If you have something new and/or bigger that you like to contribute, better open an issue first before you get frustrated.
+* Please **one** pull request per feature or bug fix or improvement. Please do not mix issues.
+* Documentation pays off in the long run. So please document your code, and the pull request and/or commit message.
+* Please test your changes thoroughly as reliability is important for this project. You may want to check different environments with different settings.
+* If it's a new feature, it would need to be documented in the appropriate section in `usage()` and in `/doc/DOCUMENTATION.md`
-* Zimnol, André H.; Private Contributor
+For questions, open an issue. Thanks for reading this!
