+## Contributing
+
+I (@peterbraden) don't spend much time maintaining this library, it runs
+primarily on contributor support. I'm happy to accept most PR's if the tests run
+green, all new functionality is tested, and there are no objections in the PR.
+
+Because I haven't got much time for maintenance, I'd prefer to keep an absolute
+minimum of dependencies.
