+# Contributing to Reladomo Kata
+
+This file contains information about reporting issues as well as contributing code. Make sure
+you read our [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](CONTRIBUTOR_COVENANT.md) before you
+start participating.
+
+## Reporting Issues
+Please use GitHub Issues for issue submission. We strongly prefer issues that have reproducible test cases.
+To contribute a test case follow the same process as contributing a feature.
+
+## Contributing Code
+Code contributions are accepted via the normal GitHub pull request mechanism. Code must pass existing tests,
+have its own set of tests, be formatted correctly and be consistent with the overall Reladomo Kata vision.
+It must follow the pull request procedure outlined below.
+
+### Coding Style
+* Use 4 spaces for indentation. No tabs.
+* A brace must be on a line by itself.
+
+### Before your first code pull request
+
+If you have never contributed to Reladomo Kata, or your copyright ownership has changed, you must first create a pull request that has
+a developer certificate of origin (DCO) in it. To create this file, follow these steps:
+
+For code you write, determine who the copyright owner is. If you are employed in the US, it's likely that your
+employer can exert copyright ownership over your work, even if the work was not done during regular working hours or
+using the employer's equipment. Copyright law is highly variable from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Consult your
+employer or a lawyer if you are not sure.
+
+If you've determined that the copyright holder for the code you write is yourself, 
+please fill out the following (replace all `<>` terms); place it in a file under `dco/<your name>.dco`. 
+
+```
+1) I, <your name>, certify that all work committed with the commit message 
+"covered by: <your name>.dco" is my original work and I own the copyright 
+to this work. I agree to contribute this code under the Apache 2.0 license.
+
+2) I understand and agree all contribution including all personal 
+information I submit with it is maintained indefinitely and may be 
+redistributed consistent with the open source license(s) involved. 
+
+This certification is effective for all code contributed from <date submitted> to 9999-01-01.
+```
+
+If you've determined that the copyright holder for the code you write is some other entity (e.g. your employer), 
+you must ensure that you are authorized by the copyright holder to be able to license this code under the 
+Apache 2.0 license for the purpose of contribution to Reladomo Kata. Negotiating such authorization and administering 
+the terms is entirely between you and the copyright holder. Please fill out the following (replace all
+`<>` terms); place it in a file under `dco/<copyright holder name>-<your name>.dco`. 
+
+```
+1) I, <your name>, certify that all work committed with the commit message 
+"covered by: <copyright holder name>-<your name>.dco" is copyright 
+<copyright holder name> and that I am authorized by <copyright holder name> 
+to contribute this code under the Apache 2.0 license.
+
+2) I understand and agree all contribution including all personal 
+information I submit with it is maintained indefinitely and may be 
+redistributed consistent with the open source license(s) involved. 
+
+This certification is effective for all code contributed from <date submitted> to 9999-01-01.
+```
+
+`<your name>` must reference your real name; we will not accept aliases, pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.
+Issue a pull request with the appropriate DCO and a change to NOTICE.txt with
+one line `This product contains code copyright <copyright holder name>, licensed under Apache 2.0 license`.
+
+### Pull requests
+When you create a code pull request, please follow these guidelines:
+* Make sure you rebase your fork so that pull requests can be fast-forward merges.
+* We generally prefer squashed commits, unless multi-commits add clarity or are required for mixed copyright commits.
+* Your commit message for your code must contain a `covered by: <dco>` line. See above.
+* Every file you modify should contain a single line with copyright information after the Apache header: 
+```
+//Portions copyright <copyright holder>. Licensed under Apache 2.0 license
+```
+* New files must contain the standard Apache 2.0 header with appropriate copyright holder.
+* If you're going to contribute code from other open source projects, commit that code first with `covered by: <license>`
+where `<license>` is license of the code being committed. Ensure the file retains its original copyright notice and add an appropriate line to 
+NOTICE.txt in the same commit. You can then modify that code in subsequent commits with a reference to your DCO and copyright.

+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
+orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+  address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the project team at [email protected]. All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.
+
+## Attribution
+
+This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage], version 1.4,
