+# Permissionless Software Foundation Community Contributing Guide 1.0
+
+This document describes a very simple process suitable for most projects under
+the PSF umbrella. It is based on [this Medium article](https://medium.com/the-node-js-collection/healthy-open-source-967fa8be7951) and the [Node.js Community Contribution Guide](https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/blob/master/BasePolicies/CONTRIBUTING.md).
+Projects are encouraged to adopt this whether they
+are hosted under the PSF or not.
+
+The goal of this document is to create a contribution process that:
+
+* Encourages new contributions.
+* Encourages contributors to remain involved.
+* Avoids unnecessary processes and bureaucracy whenever possible.
+* Creates a transparent decision making process which makes it clear how
+contributors can be involved in decision making.
+
+This document is based on much prior art in the Node.js community, io.js,
+and the Node.js project.
+
+Additional guidance can be found at the [Permissionless Software Foundation Telegram Channel](https://t.me/permissionless_software).
+
+## Vocabulary
+
+* A **Contributor** is any individual creating or commenting on an issue or pull request.
+* A **Committer** is a subset of contributors who have been given write access to the repository.
+* A **TC (Technical Committee)** is a group of committers representing the required technical
+expertise to resolve rare disputes.
+
+# Logging Issues
+
+Log an issue for any question or problem you might have. When in doubt, log an issue,
+any additional policies about what to include will be provided in the responses. The only
+exception is security disclosures which should be sent privately.
+
+Committers may direct you to another repository, ask for additional clarifications, and
+add appropriate metadata before the issue is addressed.
+
+Please be courteous, respectful, and every participant is expected to follow the
+project's Code of Conduct.
+
+# Contributions
+
+Any change to resources in this repository must be through pull requests. This applies to all changes
+to documentation, code, binary files, etc. Even long term committers and TC members must use
+pull requests.
+
+No pull request can be merged without being reviewed.
+
+For non-trivial contributions, pull requests should sit for at least 36 hours to ensure that
+contributors in other timezones have time to review. Consideration should also be given to
+weekends and other holiday periods to ensure active committers all have reasonable time to
+become involved in the discussion and review process if they wish.
+
+The default for each contribution is that it is accepted once no committer has an objection.
+During review committers may also request that a specific contributor who is most versed in a
+particular area gives a "LGTM" before the PR can be merged. There is no additional "sign off"
+process for contributions to land. Once all issues brought by committers are addressed it can
+be landed by any committer.
+
+In the case of an objection being raised in a pull request by another committer, all involved
+committers should seek to arrive at a consensus by way of addressing concerns being expressed
+by discussion, compromise on the proposed change, or withdrawal of the proposed change.
+
+If a contribution is controversial and committers cannot agree about how to get it to land
+or if it should land then it should be escalated to the TC. TC members should regularly
+discuss pending contributions in order to find a resolution. It is expected that only a
+small minority of issues be brought to the TC for resolution and that discussion and
+compromise among committers be the default resolution mechanism.
+
+# Becoming a Committer
+
+All contributors who land a non-trivial contribution should be on-boarded in a timely manner,
+and added as a committer, and be given write access to the repository.
+
+Committers are expected to follow this policy and continue to send pull requests, go through
+proper review, and have other committers merge their pull requests.
+
+# TC Process
+
+The TC uses a "consensus seeking" process for issues that are escalated to the TC.
+The group tries to find a resolution that has no open objections among TC members.
+If a consensus cannot be reached that has no objections then a majority wins vote
+is called. It is also expected that the majority of decisions made by the TC are via
+a consensus seeking process and that voting is only used as a last-resort.
+
+Resolution may involve returning the issue to committers with suggestions on how to
+move forward towards a consensus. It is not expected that a meeting of the TC
+will resolve all issues on its agenda during that meeting and may prefer to continue
+the discussion happening among the committers.
+
+Members can be added to the TC at any time. Any committer can nominate another committer
+to the TC and the TC uses its standard consensus seeking process to evaluate whether or
+not to add this new member. Members who do not participate consistently at the level of
+a majority of the other members are expected to resign.

-## Branches
+## IPFS node
-This code repository was refactored from CommonJS format to ECMA Script Modules (ESM) format because js-ipfs made the same change, and this repository depends heavily on that one. A CommonJS format version of this code repository is maintained in the [`cjs` branch](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/ipfs-service-provider/tree/cjs). This is useful for projects that can not make use of ESM yet, like [Electron.js](https://www.electronjs.org/) and [P2WDB](https://p2wdb.com).
+This web server spins up an embedded IPFS ([Helia](https://github.com/ipfs/helia)) node. This node can be controlled and interrogated via the REST API. [psf-bch-wallet](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/psf-bch-wallet) is a command-line app (CLI) that can easily tap into this REST API in order to interact with the embedded IPFS node.
 
-## Circuit Relay
+- *Video link will be added here*

-This 'production' environment for this boilerplate sets up a series of Docker containers, orchestrated with Docker Compose. This boilerplate code can be run without modification, in order to set up a [Circuit Relay](https://docs.libp2p.io/concepts/circuit-relay/) and support the PSF network. You can get paid a [bounty](https://github.com/Permissionless-Software-Foundation/bounties) for doing so, in PSF tokens. See the section below on setting up a Production Docker Container.

+A development environment will allow you modify the code on-the-fly and contribute to the code base of this repository. Ubuntu v20 is the recommended OS for creating a dev environment. Other operating systems may cause issues.

-### Operation Notes
-
-- There is a memory leak in the version of js-ipfs. The app is currently configured to shut down every 8 hours to flush memory. It relies on a process manager like pm2, Docker, or systemd to restart the app after it shuts down, in order to ensure continuous operation.
-
-- The PSF network operates as a private network. It does not connect or interact with the wider PSF network, relying instead on gateways to bridge the two networks, when they need to share content. This improves the performance and experience for everyone in the PSF network. To join the network, you'll need to add the [swarm.key](./swarm.key) file to the IPFS data folder.
-
-- [Instructions on setting up IPFS private networks.](https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/blob/master/docs/experimental-features.md#private-networks)
-- For external installations, the swarm.key file will typically go in `~/.ipfs/swarm.key`
-- For production Docker containers, the key would go in `ipfs-service-provider/production/data/go-ipfs/data/swarm.key`
