+# Open Container Initiative Runtime Specification
+
+The [Open Container Initiative][oci] develops specifications for standards on Operating System process and application containers.
+
+The specification can be found [here](spec.md).
+
+## Table of Contents
+
+Additional documentation about how this group operates:
+
+- [Code of Conduct][code-of-conduct]
+- [Style and Conventions](style.md)
+- [Implementations](implementations.md)
+- [Releases](RELEASES.md)
+- [project](project.md)
+- [charter][charter]
+
+## Use Cases
+
+To provide context for users the following section gives example use cases for each part of the spec.
+
+### Application Bundle Builders
+
+Application bundle builders can create a [bundle](bundle.md) directory that includes all of the files required for launching an application as a container.
+The bundle contains an OCI [configuration file](config.md) where the builder can specify host-independent details such as [which executable to launch](config.md#process) and host-specific settings such as [mount](config.md#mounts) locations, [hook](config.md#hooks) paths, Linux [namespaces](config-linux.md#namespaces) and [cgroups](config-linux.md#control-groups).
+Because the configuration includes host-specific settings, application bundle directories copied between two hosts may require configuration adjustments.
+
+### Hook Developers
+
+[Hook](config.md#hooks) developers can extend the functionality of an OCI-compliant runtime by hooking into a container's lifecycle with an external application.
+Example use cases include sophisticated network configuration, volume garbage collection, etc.
+
+### Runtime Developers
+
+Runtime developers can build runtime implementations that run OCI-compliant bundles and container configuration, containing low-level OS and host-specific details, on a particular platform.
+
+## Contributing
+
+Development happens on GitHub for the spec.
+Issues are used for bugs and actionable items and longer discussions can happen on the [mailing list](#mailing-list).
+
+The specification and code is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license found in the [LICENSE](./LICENSE) file.
+
+### Discuss your design
+
+The project welcomes submissions, but please let everyone know what you are working on.
+
+Before undertaking a nontrivial change to this specification, send mail to the [mailing list](#mailing-list) to discuss what you plan to do.
+This gives everyone a chance to validate the design, helps prevent duplication of effort, and ensures that the idea fits.
+It also guarantees that the design is sound before code is written; a GitHub pull-request is not the place for high-level discussions.
+
+Typos and grammatical errors can go straight to a pull-request.
+When in doubt, start on the [mailing-list](#mailing-list).
+
+### Weekly Call
+
+The contributors and maintainers of all OCI projects have a weekly meeting on Wednesdays at:
+
+* 8:00 AM (USA Pacific), during [odd weeks][iso-week].
+* 2:00 PM (USA Pacific), during [even weeks][iso-week].
+
+There is an [iCalendar][rfc5545] format for the meetings [here](meeting.ics).
+
+Everyone is welcome to participate via [UberConference web][uberconference] or audio-only: +1 415 968 0849 (no PIN needed).
+An initial agenda will be posted to the [mailing list](#mailing-list) earlier in the week, and everyone is welcome to propose additional topics or suggest other agenda alterations there.
+Minutes are posted to the [mailing list](#mailing-list) and minutes from past calls are archived [here][minutes], with minutes from especially old meetings (September 2015 and earlier) archived [here][runtime-wiki].
+
+### Mailing List
+
+You can subscribe and join the mailing list on [Google Groups][dev-list].
+
+### IRC
+
+OCI discussion happens on #opencontainers on Freenode ([logs][irc-logs]).
+
+### Git commit
+
+#### Sign your work
+
+The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch, which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it on as an open-source patch.
+The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify the below (from http://developercertificate.org):
+
+```
+Developer Certificate of Origin
+Version 1.1
+
+Copyright (C) 2004, 2006 The Linux Foundation and its contributors.
+660 York Street, Suite 102,
+San Francisco, CA 94110 USA
+
+Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
+license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+
+Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
+
+By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
+
+(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
+ have the right to submit it under the open source license
+ indicated in the file; or
+
+(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
+ of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
+ license and I have the right under that license to submit that
+ work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
+ by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
+ permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
+ in the file; or
+
+(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
+ person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
+ it.
+
+(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
+ are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
+ personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
+ maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
+ this project or the open source license(s) involved.
+```
+
+then you just add a line to every git commit message:
+
+ Signed-off-by: Joe Smith <joe@gmail.com>
+
+using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)
+
+You can add the sign off when creating the git commit via `git commit -s`.
+
+#### Commit Style
+
+Simple house-keeping for clean git history.
+Read more on [How to Write a Git Commit Message][how-to-git-commit] or the Discussion section of [git-commit(1)][git-commit.1].
+
+1. Separate the subject from body with a blank line
+2. Limit the subject line to 50 characters
+3. Capitalize the subject line
+4. Do not end the subject line with a period
+5. Use the imperative mood in the subject line
+6. Wrap the body at 72 characters
+7. Use the body to explain what and why vs. how
+ * If there was important/useful/essential conversation or information, copy or include a reference
+8. When possible, one keyword to scope the change in the subject (i.e. "README: ...", "runtime: ...")
