+============================
+So You Want to Contribute...
+============================
+
+For general information on contributing to OpenStack, please check out the
+`contributor guide <https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/>`_ to get started.
+It covers all the basics that are common to all OpenStack projects: the accounts
+you need, the basics of interacting with our Gerrit review system, how we
+communicate as a community, etc.
+
+Below will cover the more project specific information you need to get started
+with Neutron.
+
+Communication
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. This would be a good place to put the channel you chat in as a project; when/
+   where your meeting is, the tags you prepend to your ML threads, etc.
+
+- IRC channel: #openstack-neutron
+- Mailing list's prefix: [neutron]
+- Team Meeting:
+
+  This is general Neutron team meeting. The discussion in this meeting is about
+  all things related to the Neutron project, like community goals, progress with
+  blueprints, bugs, etc. There is also ``On Demand Agenda`` at the end of this
+  meeting, where anyone can add a topic to discuss with the Neutron team.
+
+  - time: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_Team_Meeting
+  - agenda: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Network/Meetings
+
+- Drivers team meeting:
+
+  This is the meeting where Neutron drivers discuss about new RFEs.
+
+  - time: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_drivers_Meeting
+  - agenda: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/NeutronDrivers
+
+- Neutron CI team meeting:
+
+  This is the meeting where upstream CI issues are discussed every week. If
+  You are interested in helping our CI to be green, that's good place to join
+  and help.
+
+  - time: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_CI_team
+  - agenda: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/neutron-ci-meetings
+
+- Neutron QoS team meeting:
+
+  This is the meeting of the Neutron Quality of Service subteam.
+
+  - time: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_QoS_Meeting
+
+- Neutron L3 team meeting:
+
+  This is the meeting of the Neutron L3 subteam where all issues related to
+  IPAM, L3 agents, etc. are discussed.
+
+  - time: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_L3_Sub-team_Meeting
+  - agenda: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/neutron-l3-subteam
+
+
+Contacting the Core Team
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. This section should list the core team, their irc nicks, emails, timezones etc. If
+   all this info is maintained elsewhere (i.e. a wiki), you can link to that instead of
+   enumerating everyone here.
+
+The list of current Neutron core reviewers is available on `gerrit
+<https://review.opendev.org/#/admin/groups/38,members>`_.
+Overall structure of Neutron team is available in
+:ref:`Neutron teams<neutron_teams>`.
+
+New Feature Planning
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. This section is for talking about the process to get a new feature in. Some
+   projects use blueprints, some want specs, some want both! Some projects
+   stick to a strict schedule when selecting what new features will be reviewed
+   for a release.
+
+Neutron team uses ``RFE (Request for Enhancements)`` to propose new features.
+RFE should be submitted as a Launchpad bug first (see section
+:ref:`reporting_a_bug`). The title of RFE bug should starts with ``[RFE]`` tag.
+Such RFEs need to be discussed and approved by the :ref:`Neutron drivers
+team<drivers_team>`. In some cases an additional spec proposed to the `Neutron
+specs <https://opendev.org/openstack/neutron-specs>`_ repo may be necessary.  The
+complete process is described in detail in :ref:`Blueprints
+guide<neutron_blueprints>`.
+
+Task Tracking
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. This section is about where you track tasks- launchpad? storyboard? is there more
+   than one launchpad project? what's the name of the project group in storyboard?
+
+We track our tasks in `Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron>`__.
+If you're looking for some smaller, easier work item to pick up and get started
+on, search for the `Low hanging fruit
+<https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bugs?field.tag=low-hanging-fruit>`_ tag.
+List of all official tags which Neutron team is using is available on
+:ref:`bugs<neutron_bugs>`.
+Every week, one of our team members is the :ref:`bug
+deputy<neutron_bug_deputy>` and at the end of the week such person usually
+sends report about new bugs to the mailing list openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org
+or talks about it on our team meeting. This is also good place to look for some
+work to do.
+
+.. _reporting_a_bug:
+
+Reporting a Bug
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. Pretty self explanatory section, link directly to where people should report bugs for
+   your project.
+
+You found an issue and want to make sure we are aware of it? You can do so on
+`Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+filebug>`__.
+More info about Launchpad usage can be found on `OpenStack docs page
+<https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/common/task-tracking.html#launchpad>`_.
+
+Getting Your Patch Merged
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. This section should have info about what it takes to get something merged. Do
+   you require one or two +2's before +W? Do some of your repos require unit test
+   changes with all patches? etc.
+
+All changes proposed to the Neutron or one of the Neutron stadium projects
+require two +2 votes from Neutron core reviewers before one of the core
+reviewers can approve patch by giving ``Workflow +1`` vote. More detailed
+guidelines for reviewers of Neutron patches are available at
+:ref:`Code reviews guide<code_review>`.
+
+
+Project Team Lead Duties
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+.. this section is where you can put PTL specific duties not already listed in
+   the common PTL guide (linked below)  or if you already have them written
+   up elsewhere, you can link to that doc here.
+
+Neutron's PTL duties are described very well in the All common
+`PTL duties guide <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/ptl.html>`_.
+Additionally to what is described in this guide, Neutron's PTL duties are:
+
+- triage new RFEs and prepare `Neutron drivers team meeting
+  <http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/#Neutron_drivers_Meeting>`_,
+
+- maintain list of the :ref:`stadium projects<neutron_stadium>` health - if each
+  project has gotten active team members and if it is following community and
+  Neutron's guidelines and goals,
+
+- maintain list of the :ref:`stadium projects
+  lieutenants<subproject_lieutenants>` - check if those people are still active
+  in the projects, if their contact data are correct, maybe there is someone
+  new who is active in the stadium project and could be added to this list.
+
+Over the past few years, the Neutron team has followed a mentoring approach for:
+
+- new contributors,
+- potential new core reviewers,
+- future PTLs.
+
+The Neutron PTL's responsibility is to identify potential new core reviewers
+and help with their mentoring process.
+Mentoring of new contributors and potential core reviewers can be of course
+delegated to the other members of the Neutron team.
+Mentoring of future PTLs is responibility of the Neutron PTL.
