+Guide To Maven Documentation Style
+
+ 
+* Where did the style came from?
+
+  The documentation style guide was created to make our documentation more
+  consistent and also to apply best practices to the documentation as well.
+  The standard has just been started and will expand over time based on the
+  suggestions made on the Maven dev mailing list. It is a community consensus
+  of how we should write our documentation.
+ 
+  Each rule in this guide should come with a motivation as to why it exists.
+  References to external sources are encouraged.
+
+  
+* Date format
+
+  How people format a date varies around the world, sometimes making it hard
+  for people to understand each other. The solution to this problem comes in
+  the form of the ISO-8601 standard.
+  
+  A date in our documentation must follow this standard:
+  
+  <<YYYY-MM-DD>>
+
+  where <<YYYY>> is the year in the Gregorian calendar, <<MM>> is the month of
+  the year between 01 (January) and 12 (December), and <<DD>> is the day of the
+  month between 01 and 31.

+
+
+~~ NOTE: Add more rules here. Follow the heading style of the rule above.
