+============================
+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 Zaqar.
+
+Communication
