Use the [Trello board](https://trello.com/b/6BmTulfx/devdocs-documentation) where everyone can vote and contributors can get a feel for what is most wished for.
2. Before embarking on any significant pull request, please open an issue describing the changes you intend to make. Otherwise you risk spending a lot of time working on something I may not want to merge. This also tells other contributors that you're working on the feature.
**Important:** the documentation's license must permit alteration, redistribution, and commercial use. Software vendors that wish to add commercial software documentation to DevDocs may contact me privately.
In addition to the [guidelines for contributing code](#contributing-code-and-features), the following guidelines apply to pull requests that add a new documentation:
* Your documentation must come with an official icon, in both 1x and 2x resolutions (16x16 and 32x32 pixels). This is important because icons are the only thing differentiating search results in the UI. If a project doesn't have an official icon, it won't be accepted into DevDocs, sorry.
* DevDocs favors quality over quantity. Your documentation should only include documents that most developers may want to read semi-regularly. By reducing the number of entries, we make it easier to find other, more relevant entries.
* Try to remove as much content and HTML markup as possible, particularly content which isn't associated with any entries (e.g. introduction, changelog, etc.).
* Names must be as short as possible and unique across the documentation.
Please don't submit a pull request updating the version number of a documentation unless you've verified that it can be generated properly using the current code. Because the original content will have changed, the code will likely need to be tweaked.
To ask that an existing documentation be updated, please use the [Trello board](https://trello.com/c/2B0hmW7M/52-request-updates-here) or the [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/devdocs).
* **Improve our copy.** English isn't my first language so if you notice grammatical or usage errors, feel free to submit a pull request — it'll be much appreciated.
* **Participate in the issue tracker.** Your opinion matters — feel free to add comments to existing issues. You're also welcome to participate to the [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/d/forum/devdocs).
