+Filing bugs and feature requests
+================================
+
+If you've encountered what you believe is a bug in GHC, or you'd like
+to propose a feature request, please let us know! Submit a ticket in
+our [bug tracker] [10] and we'll be sure to look into it. Remember:
+**Filing a bug is the best way to make sure your issue isn't lost over
+time**, so please feel free.
+
+If you're an active user of GHC, you may also be interested in joining
+the [glasgow-haskell-users] [11] mailing list, where developers and
+GHC users discuss various topics and hang out.
+
+Hacking & Developing GHC
+========================
+
+Once you've filed a bug, maybe you'd like to fix it yourself? That
+would be great, and we'd surely love your company! If you're looking
+to hack on GHC, check out the guidelines in the `HACKING.md` file in
+this directory - they'll get you up to speed quickly.
+
+Contributors & Acknowledgements
+===============================
+
+GHC in its current form wouldn't exist without the hard work of
+[its many contributors] [12]. Over time, it has grown to include the
+efforts and research of many institutions, highly talented people, and
+groups from around the world. We'd like to thank them all, and invite
+you to join!
