+Guidelines
+==========
+
+Contributions to GeoPandas are very welcome.  They are likely to
+be accepted more quickly if they follow these guidelines.
+
+At this stage of GeoPandas development, the priorities are to define a
+simple, usable, and stable API and to have clean, maintainable,
+readable code.  Performance matters, but not at the expense of those
+goals.
+
+In general, GeoPandas follows the conventions of the pandas project
+where applicable.  Please read [pandas contributing
+guidelines](https://github.com/pydata/pandas/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).
+
+In particular, when submitting a pull request:
+
+- All existing tests should pass.  Please make sure that the test
+  suite passes, both locally and on
+  [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/kjordahl/geopandas).  Status on
+  Travis will be visible on a pull request.  If you want to enable
+  Travis CI on your own fork, please read the pandas guidelines link
+  above or the
+  [getting started docs](http://about.travis-ci.org/docs/user/getting-started/).
+
+- New functionality should include tests.  Please write reasonable
+  tests for your code and make sure that they pass on your pull request.
+
+- Classes, methods, functions, etc. should have docstrings.  The first
+  line of a docstring should be a standalone summary.  Parameters and
+  return values should be ducumented explicitly.
+
+Improving the documentation and testing for code already in GeoPandas
+is a great way to get started if you'd like to make a contribution.
+
+Style
+-----
+
+- Follow PEP 8 when possible.
+
+- Imports should be grouped with standard library imports first,
+  3rd-party libraries next, and geopandas imports third.  Within each
+  grouping, imports should be alphabetized.  Always use absolute
+  imports rather than relative imports.
