+# Contribution Guidelines
+
+Before opening any [ciscoconfparse][1] issues or proposing any pull
+requests, please read this document completely.
+
+To get the greatest chance of helpful responses, please also observe the
+following.
+
+## Contributions
+
+### Bug Reports
+
+Please be aware of the following things when filing bug reports:
+
+1. Avoid raising duplicate issues. *Please* use the [GitHub issue search][3]
+   feature to check whether your bug report or feature request has been
+   discussed in the past. Duplicate bug reports and feature requests are a
+   non-trivial maintenance burden on the resources of the project. If it is
+   clear from your report that you could not find the original, no worries.
+   However, we will usually close duplicate issues.
+2. When filing bug reports about exceptions or tracebacks, please include the
+   *complete* traceback. Partial tracebacks, or just the exception text, are
+   not helpful. Issues that do not contain complete tracebacks may be closed
+   without warning.
+3. Make sure you provide a suitable amount of information to work with. This
+   means you should provide:
+
+   - Guidance on **how to reproduce the issue**. Ideally, this should be a
+     *small* code sample that can be run immediately by the maintainers.
+     Failing that, let us know what you're doing, how often it happens, what
+     environment you're using, etc. Be thorough: it prevents us needing to ask
+     further questions.
+   - Tell us **what you expected to happen**. When we run your example code,
+     what are we expecting to happen? What does "success" look like for your
+     code?
+   - Tell us **what actually happens**. It's not helpful for you to say "it
+     doesn't work" or "it fails". Tell us *how* it fails: do you get an
+     exception? A hang? How was the actual result different from your expected
+     result?
+   - Add the entire text configuration file as rendered by the network device.
+   - Tell us **what version of [ciscoconfparse][1] you're using**, and
+     **how you installed it**. Different versions of [ciscoconfparse][1] behave
+     differently.  If possible, you should check the latest ciscoconfparse
+     release before filing a new bug.
+
+   If you do not provide sufficient detail, it could take us much longer to
+   fix your problem.
+
+
+### Pull Requests
+
+1. Please email Mike Pennington before writing a PR.  We might not be
+   interested in the feature, or already have plans to fix an issue.
+   Unsolicited PRs may be closed.
+
+2. PRs must include tests for the functionality being added, or bugs being
+   fixed.  Needless to say, your PR itself must not fail existing tests.
+
+### Github Issues
+
+1. CiscoConfParse Github issues are automatically watched for inactivity.
+   Upon detecting stale or inactive issues, they will be automatically locked
+   by a Github Workflow job.
+
+2. Once locked, no further comments can be added.  Locked issues may be
+   unlocked by CiscoConfParse admins solely at their discretion.
+
+## Usage Questions
+
+The [GitHub issue tracker][3] is for *bug reports* and *feature requests*.
+Please do not use it to ask usage questions about how to use
+[ciscoconfparse][1] or how to fix your scripts.  [Stack Overflow][4] or
+[Reddit r/networking][5] are good examples of places to ask questions. If
+you ask on [Stack Overflow][4], please make sure that your question is
+tagged with the [ciscoconfparse tag][4].
+
+## Anti-social behavior
+
+   Harrassment (in any form, or for any reason), intimidation, trolling,
+   excessive drama, insults, rudeness, stalking, libel, or other abusive
+   behaviors are not welcome for any reason.
+
+## Content policy
+
+   The project maintainers may edit, close, or delete content at their own
+   discretion.
