+Sending your contributions or patches
+-------------------------------------
+
+First of all it's highly recommended to contact me before sending anything
+or before even starting to do any work. Tell me what you suggest to be
+changed or what you have planned to do. Also ensure you are using the
+very latest (development) version of OSS/Free since the change may already be
+implemented there. In general it's major waste of time to try to improve
+several months old version. Information about the latest version can be found
+from http://www.4front-tech.com/ossfree. In general there is no point in
+sending me patches relative to production kernels.
