> language that imposes action onto the user Thinking about this a bit more; summarizing the requirements to contribute here helps orient folks rather than deferring those asks to a very long "How to contribute" page (see: https://cassandra.apache.org/_/development/index.html). We're imposing actions on users to integrate with our project culture and agreed upon requirements, whether we do it here or on a longer page we link to from here. Also, I'm all for us having long-form documentation that takes 60+ hits of page down to get through, but we also want to encourage folks to "scratch their own itch" and get correctly oriented here without the steep ask of them reading through the entire "how to contribute" page. If we assumed that people might want to have a minimal interaction w/the project as their first set of interactions that looks something like: 1. cloning the codebase 2. making a change 3. opening a PR I think it's valuable to have a minimal checklist to let them know that "hey, there's more to this than just opening a PR; maybe check the links in the references section to about running CI". -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
