+go-libp2p is part of [The IPFS Project](https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs), and is MIT licensed open source software. We welcome contributions big and small! Take a look at the [community contributing notes](https://github.com/ipfs/community/blob/master/contributing.md). Please make sure to check the [issues](https://github.com/ipfs/go-libp2p/issues). Search the closed ones
+before reporting things, and help us with the open ones.
+
+Guidelines:
+
+- read the [libp2p spec](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/master/protocol/network)
+- please make branches + pull-request, even if working on the main repository
+- ask questions or talk about things in [Issues](https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues) or #ipfs on freenode.
+- ensure you are able to contribute (no legal issues please-- we use the DCO)
+- run `go fmt` before pushing any code
+- run `golint` and `go vet` too -- some things (like protobuf files) are expected to fail.
+- get in touch with @jbenet and @diasdavid about how best to contribute
+- have fun!

+
+> [libp2p](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/master/libp2p) is a networking stack and library modularized out of [The IPFS Project](https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs) project, and bundled separately for other tools to use.
+>
+> libp2p is the product of a long, and arduous quest of understanding -- a deep dive into the internet's network stack, and plentiful peer-to-peer protocols from the past. Building large scale peer-to-peer systems has been complex and difficult in the last 15 years, and libp2p is a way to fix that. It is a "network stack" -- a protocol suite -- that cleanly separates concerns, and enables sophisticated applications to only use the protocols they absolutely need, without giving up interoperability and upgradeability. libp2p grew out of IPFS, but it is built so that lots of people can use it, for lots of different projects.
+>
+> We will be writing a set of docs, posts, tutorials, and talks to explain what p2p is, why it is tremendously useful, and how it can help your existing and new projects. But in the meantime, check out

+> - [**go-libp2p implementation**](https://github.com/ipfs/go-libp2p)
