-## About tests
+### Report issues and ideas
+
+Please use our [JIRA system](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METAMODEL) to report issues and ideas that you might work on. This is a great way to bounce ideas and get input to your contributions.
+
+### Submitting your patch
+
+When submitting your patch, keep in mind that it should be easy for others to review. For this reason we have two preferred ways to submit a patch - you can select the approach that fits you the best:
+
+ * Use "git diff" to make a .patch file and submit it via our [Review Board](https://reviews.apache.org/groups/metamodel/).
+ * Fork our [GitHub mirror](https://github.com/apache/incubator-metamodel) and post a [Pull Request](https://github.com/apache/incubator-metamodel/pulls).
+
+### About tests
 
 By default the build will include all self-contained tests, including some quick integration tests to embedded databases like H2, Derby, HSQLDB etc.
 
 Some tests have external dependencies to running servers etc. Those tests can be configured by adding a file called **metamodel-integrationtest-configuration.properties** to your local user's home folder. You can take a look at the [example-metamodel-integrationtest-configuration.properties file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/incubator-metamodel/master/example-metamodel-integrationtest-configuration.properties) to see which properties are available in order to configure the external server connections.
