 # Lucene.NET Contributor's Guide
-Hello new contributors, thanks for getting on board!
 
-Before anything else, please read
-[The Getting Involved article at apache.org](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Getting+Involved). In
-particular, we will need you to have an ICLA with Apache and to feel
-comfortable with Git and GitHub.
+You have found a bug or you have an idea for a cool new enhancement? Contributing code is a great way to give something back to the open source community. Before you dig right into the code there are a few guidelines that we need contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of things.
 
-You should also be familiar with [Open Source Contribution Etiquette](http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2010/Dec-31.html) and the practice of [Don't "Push" Your Pull Requests](http://www.igvita.com/2011/12/19/dont-push-your-pull-requests/). If you are thinking of making a change that will result in more than 25 lines of changed code, we would appreciate you opening a discussion on our [developer mailing list](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Mailing+Lists) before you start writing. It could save both you and our team quite a bit of work if the code doesn't have to be rewritten to fit in with our overall objectives. 
+## Getting Started
 
-Start by forking [Lucene.NET on GitHub](https://github.com/apache/lucenenet). For every
-contribution you are about to make, you should create a branch (tracking
-master!) with some descriptive name, and [send us a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/) once it is
-ready to be reviewed and merged.
-
-And please git rebase when pulling from origin/master instead of merging :) [More information can be found over at Atlassian](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/rewriting-history/git-rebase).
+- Read [Open Source Contribution Etiquette](http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2010/Dec-31.html) and [Don't "Push" Your Pull Requests](http://www.igvita.com/2011/12/19/dont-push-your-pull-requests/).
+- Make sure you have a [JIRA account](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/signup.action).
+- Make sure you have a [GitHub account](https://github.com/signup/free). NOTE: Although this is a mirror of our Git repository, pull requests are accepted through GitHub.
+- If you are thinking of making a change that will result in more than 25 lines of changed code, we would appreciate you opening a discussion on our [developer mailing list](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Mailing+Lists) before you start writing. It could save both you and our team quite a bit of work if the code doesn't have to be rewritten to fit in with our overall objectives.
+- Submit a JIRA ticket for your issue, assuming one doesn't exist already.
+  - If reporting a bug, clearly describe the issue including steps to reproduce, observed behavior, and expected behavior.
+  - If reporting a bug, provide source code that we can run without any alteration demonstrating the issue. Issues submitted with runnable code will be given a higher priority than those submitted without.
+- If you will be submitting a pull request, fork the repository on GitHub.
+  - If this is the first time you are contributing, submit an [Individual Contributor License Agreement](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Individual+Contributor+License).
+  - Create a new descriptive branch (tracking master) and [submit a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/) once it is ready to be reviewed and merged.

 ## If You are Willing to Help with Porting Code
 
-* Please make sure nobody else is working on porting it already. We would
-like to avoid doing redundant work. We ask that you communicate clearly in
-this list that you are going to work on some part of the project. A PMC
-member will then either approve or alert you someone else is working on
-that part already.

 * Conventions & standards: not too picky at this point, but we should
-definitely align with the common conventions in .NET: PascalCase and not
-camelCase for method names, properties instead of getters/setters of fields
-etc. I'm not going to list all the differences now but we probably want to
-have such a document up in the future. For reference have a look at
-Lucene.Net.Core, while not perfect it is starting to shape up the way we
-want it.
-
-* In general, prefer .NETified code over code resembling Java. Enumerators
-over Iterators, yields when possible, Linq, BCL data structures and so on.
-We are targeting .NET 4.5.1, use this fact. Sometimes you will have to
-resort to Java-like code to ensure compatibility; it's ok. We would rather
-ship fast and then iterate on improving later.

 * Making demos and tutorials, blogging about Lucene.Net, etc. (and providing feedback on how we can make the API better!). If you write a helpful Lucene.Net post on your blog, be sure to let us know so we can link to it.
 * Helping out with documentation. We are still trying to make the API docs easily navigable (see #206), and there are many files that are not formatted correctly (links not appearing, tables not very readable, etc). Also, we need help getting all of the Java-related documentation converted to use .NET methodologies.
-* Reviewing code. Pick a random section, review line by line. Many of the bugs have been found this way, as the tests are not showing them. Let us know if you find anything suspicious on the [dev mailing list](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Mailing+Lists).
-* Create a new Lucene.Net web site. Our [current one](https://lucenenet.apache.org/) is ridiculously out of date and could use a mobile-friendly finish. We could probably also use a refresher on our logo. This project was on our radar for a while but somehow died. Join our [dev mailing list](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Mailing+Lists), gather requirements, and you will be well on your way.

Let us know if you find anything suspicious on the [dev mailing list](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/LUCENENET/Mailing+Lists) or submit a pull request.
 * Optimizing code. During porting we have ended up with some code that is less than optimal. We could use a hand getting everything up to speed (pun intended).
 * Helping update the API, or at least just providing feedback on what is important. There are several things on our radar, like integrating something like [Lucene.Net.Linq](https://github.com/themotleyfool/Lucene.Net.Linq) directly into our project, [converting the remaining public-facing iterator classes into `IEnumerator<T>`](https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/LUCENENET/issues/LUCENENET-469?filter=allopenissues) so they can be used with foreach loops, adding extension methods to remove the need for casting, etc.
 * Creating projects to make Lucene.Net easier to use with various .NET frameworks (ASP.NET MVC, WebApi, AspNetCore, WPF, EntityFramework, etc). In general, we would like common tasks as easy as possible to integrate into applications build on these frameworks without everyone having to write the same boilerplate code.
