Hi,
since we keep on getting non trivial pull requests that had no previous
discussion on the
list, or no tests, or violate in other creative ways the preferred approach
to contribution,
I've tried to make things a bit more visible by expaning the contributor's
page, and
linking it from our github home page:

https://github.com/geotools/geotools/pull/310

Most of the page is really just summary and links to other pages, and not
all of them
to be fair.
The material is really already there, but it's too buried and the impatient
will simply never get to read it,
the patch just tries to give direct links from the home page, Github, an
provide executive summary
to avoid the major pitfalls we're seeing when people try to contribute code
to the project

Comments welcomed :-)

Cheers
Andrea
