-## Getting help [^](#how-to-contribute)
-
-Community discussion, questions, and informal bug reporting is done on the
-[CodeMirror Google group](http://groups.google.com/group/codemirror).
-
-## Submitting bug reports [^](#how-to-contribute)
-
-The preferred way to report bugs is to use the
-[GitHub issue tracker](http://github.com/marijnh/CodeMirror/issues). Before
-reporting a bug, read these pointers.
-
-**Note:** The issue tracker is for *bugs*, not requests for help. Questions
-should be asked on the
-[CodeMirror Google group](http://groups.google.com/group/codemirror) instead.
-
-### Reporting bugs effectively
-
-- CodeMirror is maintained by volunteers. They don't owe you anything, so be
- polite. Reports with an indignant or belligerent tone tend to be moved to the
- bottom of the pile.
-
-- Include information about **the browser in which the problem occurred**. Even
- if you tested several browsers, and the problem occurred in all of them,
- mention this fact in the bug report. Also include browser version numbers and
- the operating system that you're on.
-
-- Mention which release of CodeMirror you're using. Preferably, try also with
- the current development snapshot, to ensure the problem has not already been
- fixed.
-
-- Mention very precisely what went wrong. "X is broken" is not a good bug
- report. What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? Describe the
- exact steps a maintainer has to take to make the problem occur. We can not
- fix something that we can not observe.
-
-- If the problem can not be reproduced in any of the demos included in the
- CodeMirror distribution, please provide an HTML document that demonstrates
- the problem. The best way to do this is to go to
- [jsbin.com](http://jsbin.com/ihunin/edit), enter it there, press save, and
- include the resulting link in your bug report.

-## Contributing code [^](#how-to-contribute)
-
-- Make sure you have a [GitHub Account](https://github.com/signup/free)
-- Fork [CodeMirror](https://github.com/marijnh/CodeMirror/)
- ([how to fork a repo](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo))
-- Make your changes
-- If your changes are easy to test or likely to regress, add tests.
- Tests for the core go into `test/test.js`, some modes have their own
- test suite under `mode/XXX/test.js`. Feel free to add new test
- suites to modes that don't have one yet (be sure to link the new
- tests into `test/index.html`).
-- Follow the general code style of the rest of the project (see
- below). Run `bin/lint` to verify that the linter is happy.
-- Make sure all tests pass. Visit `test/index.html` in your browser to
- run them.
-- Submit a pull request
-([how to create a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo))
-
-### Coding standards
-
-- 2 spaces per indentation level, no tabs.
-- Include semicolons after statements.
-- Note that the linter (`bin/lint`) which is run after each commit
- complains about unused variables and functions. Prefix their names
- with an underscore to muffle it.
