 We accept Pull Requests via GitHub. The [developer mailing list](https://commons.apache.org/mail-lists.html) is the main channel of communication for contributors.
 There are some guidelines which will make applying PRs easier for us:
 + No tabs! Please use spaces for indentation.
-+ Respect the code style.
++ Respect the existing code style for each file.
 + Create minimal diffs - disable on save actions like reformat source code or organize imports. If you feel the source code should be reformatted create a separate PR for this change.
 + Provide JUnit tests for your changes and make sure your changes don't break any existing tests by running ```mvn```.
