 # CONTRIBUTING
 
-The OpenGitops documents hosts various types of content, all content must meet acceptence criteria to be considered for inclusion. 
-To be included content should received at least 2 approvals from project maintainers.
+This repository hosts lasting documents for the OpenGitOps project, which are versioned and released together.
+
+In addition to contributions to the ongoing evolution of the GitOps [Principles](hhttps://github.com/open-gitops/documents/blob/v1.0.0/PRINCIPLES.md) and [Glossary](https://github.com/open-gitops/documents/blob/v1.0.0/GLOSSARY.md), OpenGitOps project is looking for additional types of content to help new and existing GitOps practitioners learn from each other on their journey.
+
+These may include content initially envisioned in the [Work Products](https://github.com/cncf/tag-app-delivery/blob/main/gitops-wg/charter.md#work-products-wip) section of GitOps Working Group charter: methodologies and approaches documents, a GitOps landscape document, or working examples for getting started.
+Other content, such as white papers, case studies, architectural patterns, tool and technology comparisons, or tutorials, are also good candidates for inclusion.
+Use your imagination!
+
+It's encouraged to first discuss any ideas or questions asynchronously with the GitOps community using [OpenGitOps project discussions](https://github.com/open-gitops/project/discussions). 
+These discussion topics are regularly highlighted in the twice-monthly community meetings, and in some cases, special teams are formed within OpenGitOps to collaborate on specific content topics raised in these discussions.
+
+However it's created, all content in this repo must meet the acceptance criteria below to be considered for inclusion.
+Pull requests must also receive at least two approvals from project maintainers.
+We look forward to your contributions!
