-# How to Submit a New Resource Module
-
-If you are just starting your resource module, **create an extra empty branch first**.
-The extra empty branch will make it much easier to [set up the review pull request](#how-to-set-up-the-review-pull-request).
-Also, please ensure that your resource module repository is named "\<ResourceModuleName\>Dsc" (e.g. SharePointDsc, WebAdministrationDsc, etc.).
-
-When you are ready for your module to be reviewed, follow these steps:
-
-1. Ensure your new resource module is in its own public repository.
-1. Ensure your new repository is under the MIT license.
-1. Ensure your new resource module follows the [High Quality DSC Resource Module Guidelines](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/blob/master/HighQualityModuleGuidelines.md).
-1. Set up a review pull request by following [these instructions](#how-to-set-up-the-review-pull-request).
-This will allow the reviewers to make comments and see the changes you make based on those comments.
-1. Submit an issue in the [main DSC Resource Kit repository](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources) with a link to your repository.
-1. Once **at least three** members of the [Dsc Resource Kit Design Review Team](#dsc-resource-kit-design-review-team) have reviewed and approved the new resource module, close the pull request, making sure all changes from the review are in your working branch.
-1. Transfer ownership of the new resource module to the PowerShell organization by first transferring ownership of the repository to **@kwirkykat**. The GitHub instructions for transferring a repository can be found [here](https://help.github.com/articles/transferring-a-repository-owned-by-your-personal-account/).

-## How to Set Up the Review Pull Request
-If you already created an empty branch at the beginning of writing your resource module, simply create a pull request from your working branch to your previously created empty branch.
-
-If you did not create an empty branch at the beginning of writing your resource module, but the very first commit you made to your repository was an empty commit, you can create an empty branch based off of that empty commit like so:
-```powershell
-$firstCommit = $gitCommits = git rev-list --all                # Retrieves all the git commit SHA keys for the current history
-git branch myEmptyBranch $gitCommits[$gitCommits.Count - 1]    # Creates a new branch called myEmptyBranch at the first commit
-git push origin myEmptyBranch                                  # Pushes the new empty branch up to GitHub
-```
-Then create a pull request from your working branch to your newly created empty branch.
-
-If you did not create an empty branch at the beginning of writing your resource module, and the very first commit you made to your repository was not empty, you will need to create 2 new branches:
-```powershell
-git checkout --orphan reviewTarget               # Creates a new parentless branch named reviewTarget
-git rm -r --cached *                             # Removes the current files from the commit pipeline
-git clean -fxd                                    # Removes **all** files (committed or not) from this branch
-git commit --allow-empty -m 'Start of review'    # Provides an empty commit as the base of this branch
-git branch reviewBase                            # Creates a new branch named reviewBase with the same empty commit as the reviewTarget branch
-git merge <name of your working branch>          # Merges the code from your working branch into the reviewTarget branch
-git push origin reviewTarget                     # Pushes the reviewTarget branch with all of your merged code to GitHub
-git push origin reviewBase                       # Pushes the empty reviewBase branch to GitHub
-```
-Then create a pull request with reviewBase as the base branch and reviewTarget as the target branch.

+# How to perform a resource module submission
+
+An owner of a resource module may make a new resource module submission by adding
+the repository as a submodule to the list of resource modules under
+[DscResources](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/tree/master/DscResources).
+
+Prior to listing in DSC Resource repository under [DscResources](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/tree/master/DscResources)
+
+- The repository must pass the
+  [Quality Governance](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/blob/master/Naming.md#quality-governance).
+- The community accepts, at a community call, that a resource module follows the
+  guidelines set out for a
+  [High Quality Resource Module](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/blob/master/Naming.md#high-quality-resource-module).
+
+## First step
+
+When you think your resource module is ready for listing in DSC Resource Kit,
+then the first step is to create a new issue using the *New resource module submission* issue
+template. It should include all the information needed to make a successful
+resource module submission (including the above information).
+
+>***Note:** You can look at the template to get the information without submitting
+an issue.*
+
+## Support for the new resource module submission
+
+The maintainer (owner) of the resource module, and the community, will contribute
+and support the resource module (in the owners repository) on a voluntary
+basis. If not otherwise mentioned in the resource module's documentation
+[it should be considered unsupported](https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources/blob/master/Supportability.md#who-provides-support-for-the-technologies-managed-by-dsc).
