What is being recommended?
This is a file that outlines some guidance, both internal and external relating to external contributions.
What's the context?
At the Guardian, we are committed to coding in public. A significant portion of our source code is openly accessible on our GitHub repository. This openness sometimes leads to contributions or pull requests (PRs) from individuals outside our organisation.
This was circulated as a document with engineering managers and DevX in November, and suggestions were incorporated.
As with our other recommendations this isn't intended to be set in stone, but to reflect our thinking, and should be updated as and when required (starting immediately if required!)
