+Code of Conduct
+---------------
+
+Our Pledge
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of
+age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex
+characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
+education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance,
+race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open,
+welcoming, diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+Our Standards
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+-  Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+-  Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+-  Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+-  Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our
+   mistakes, and learning from the experience
+-  Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
+   overall community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+-  The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
+   advances of any kind
+-  Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political
+   attacks
+-  Public or private harassment
+-  Publishing others’ private information, such as a physical or email
+   address, without their explicit permission
+-  Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+   professional setting
+
+Enforcement Responsibilities
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our
+standards of acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair
+corrective action in response to any behavior that they deem
+inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other
+contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will
+communicate reasons for moderation decisions when appropriate.
+
+Scope
+~~~~~
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also
+applies when an individual is officially representing the community in
+public spaces. Examples of representing our community include using an
+official e-mail address, posting via an official social media account,
+or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event.
+
+Enforcement
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may
+be reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
+wasp-os@redfelineninja.org.uk . All complaints will be reviewed and
+investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security
+of the reporter of any incident.
+
+Enforcement Guidelines
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in
+determining the consequences for any action they deem in violation of
+this Code of Conduct:
+
+1. Correction
+.............
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior
+deemed unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders,
+providing clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation
+of why the behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be
+requested.
+
+2. Warning
+..........
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series of
+actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of
+time. This includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as
+external channels like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a
+temporary or permanent ban.
+
+3. Temporary Ban
+................
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards,
+including sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No
+public or private interaction with the people involved, including
+unsolicited interaction with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is
+allowed during this period. Violating these terms may lead to a
+permanent ban.
+
+4. Permanent Ban
+................
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of
+individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction
+within the community.

+Contributor's Guide
+===================
+
+.. contents::

+   :depth: 2
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Anyone can contribute to the wasp-os project. Contributions are typically made
+via github using the typical fork-and-pull-request approach. Contributors who
+do not wish to use github are also welcome to share patches using
+``git format-patch --to wasp-os@redfelineninja.org.uk`` and ``git send-email``.
+
+All contributions must include a ``Signed-off-by`` tag added by the contributor
+who submits the patch or patches. The ``Signed-off-by`` tag is added at the end
+of the patch description and certifies that the contributor either wrote the
+patch or has the right to share the code under the open source license
+appropriate for the file being modified.
+
+A ``Signed-off-by`` tag is an explicit statement that your contribution comes
+under one of (a), (b), (c), or (d) from the list below so please be sure to
+read carefully what you are certifying by adding your Signed-off-by.
+
+Additionally please be aware that that contributors, like all other members of
+the wasp-os community, are expected to meet the community guidelines described
+in the project's code of conduct when interacting within all community spaces
+(including the wasp-os github presence).
