+# Contributing guidelines
+
+This project is for documentation about the community. To contribute to one of
+the Kubernetes projects please see the contribution guide for that project.
+
+## How To Contribute
+
+The contributions here follow a [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/) model with some additional process.
+The process is as follows:
+
+1. Submit a pull request with the requested change.
+2. Another person, other than a Special Interest Group (SIG) owner, can mark it Looks Good To Me (LGTM) upon successful review. Otherwise feedback can be given.
+3. A SIG owner can merge someone else's change into their SIG documentation immediate.
+4. Someone cannot immediately merge their own change. To merge your own change wait 24 hours during the week or 72 hours over a weekend. This allows others the opportunity to review a change.
+
+_Note, the SIG Owners decide on the layout for their own sub-directory structure._

+# Kubernetes Community Documentation
+
+Welcome to the Kubernetes community documentation. Here you can learn about what's happening in the community.
+
+## Slack Chat
+
+Kubernetes uses [Slack](http://slack.com) for community discussions.
+
+**Join**: Joining is self service.  Go to [slack.k8s.io](http://slack.k8s.io) to join.
+
+**Access**: Once you join, the team can be found at [kubernetes.slack.io](http://kubernetes.slack.io)
+
+**Archives**: Discussions on most channels are archived at [kubernetes.slackarchive.io](http://kubernetes.slackarchive.io).  Start archiving by inviting the slackarchive bot to a channel via `/invite @slackarchive`
+
+To add new channels, contact one of the admins. Currently that includes briangrant, goltermann, jbeda, and thockin.
+
+## Special Interest Groups (SIG)
+
+Much of the community activity is organized into a community meeting and numerous SIGs. Each of those groups operates a little differently which is reflected in how they capture notes, examples, and other information. Each groups material is in its subdirectory in this project.
