Updated Terms of Service and new Site Policy repository
------------------------------------------------------------

We're updating our Terms of Service 
(https://help.github.com/articles/github-terms-of-service/) and Corporate Terms 
of Service 
(https://help.github.com/articles/github-corporate-terms-of-service/). These 
revisions are the result of community feedback, along with clarifications and 
improvements to the readability of both documents. All changes are in separate 
pull requests in a new working repository, github/site-policy 
(https://github.com/github/site-policy). Here, you can view, comment, and 
suggest additional updates—or fork a copy to adapt for your own site.

Please submit your comments by 5:00 pm PST on Friday, July 28. After that, 
we’ll take a week to go through your comments and make changes to improve the 
Terms. The new Terms will become effective on Monday, August 7.


Pull requests welcome
------------------------------------------------------------

We welcome you to look over our changes and share your input using the new Site 
Policy repository. Please follow our Contributor Guidelines 
(https://github.com/github/site-policy/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) , and let 
us know if you see anything you think should be different—whether it’s a missed 
typo or a rule that might have implications we haven’t thought of.
