Great! First, read this page (including the small print at -the end). - -### Before you contribute -Before we can use your code, you must sign the -[Google Individual Contributor License Agreement](https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual?csw=1) -(CLA), which you can do online. The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the -copyright to your changes, even after your contribution becomes part of our -codebase, so we need your permission to use and distribute your code. We also -need to be sure of various other things. For instance that you'll tell us if you -know that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign -the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has -approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase. - -Before you start working on a larger contribution, we recommend to get in touch -with us first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out -and possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid -frustration later on. - -### Code reviews -All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We -use GitHub pull requests for this purpose. - -### Organization -During our review and triage of incoming pull requests, we'll advise whether to -include your contribution into the mainline SDK, or to maintain it within the -separate group of [community-contributed modules](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/DataflowJavaSDK/tree/master/contrib). - -### The small print -Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than -the one above, the Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement.
