# Contributing to ISA-L
Everyone is welcome to contribute. Patches may be submitted using GitHub pull
requests (PRs). All commits must be signed off by the developer (--signoff)
which indicates that you agree to the Developer Certificate of Origin. Patch
discussion will happen directly on the GitHub PR. Design pre-work and general
discussion occurs on the [mailing list]. Anyone can provide feedback in either
location and all discussion is welcome. Decisions on whether to merge patches
will be handled by the maintainer.
