+If you'd like to contribute to go-ethereum please fork, fix, commit and
+send a pull request. Commits who do not comply with the coding standards
+are ignored (use gofmt!). If you send pull requests make absolute sure that you
+commit on the `develop` branch and that you do not merge to master.
+Commits that are directly based on master are simply ignored.
