 You have found a bug or you have an idea for a cool new feature? Contributing
 code is a great way to give something back to the open source community. Before
 you dig right into the code, there are a few guidelines that we need
 contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of
 things.
 
-Some of the ideas are documented in the [Maven Wiki][maven-wiki]
-which might be interesting to read and for further discussion.
