-When you want to send a patch because you fixed a bug or implemented a cool
-feature (please talk to us before working on features to see whether they are
-maybe already implemented, not possible for some some reason, or don’t fit
-into the concept), please use git to create a patchfile.
+Please talk to us before working on new features to see whether they will be
+accepted. There are a few things which we don’t want to see in i3, e.g. a
+command which will focus windows in an alt+tab like way.
 
-First of all, update your working copy to the latest version of the master
-branch:
+When working on bugfixes, please make sure you mention that you are working on
+it in the corresponding bugreport at http://bugs.i3wm.org/. In case there is no
+bugreport yet, please create one.
 
---------
-git pull
---------
+After you are done, please submit your work for review at http://cr.i3wm.org/
 
-Afterwards, make the necessary changes for your bugfix/feature. Then, review
-the changes using +git diff+ (you might want to enable colors in the diff using
-+git config diff.color auto+).  When you are definitely done, use +git commit
--a+ to commit all changes you’ve made.
-
-Then, use the following command to generate a patchfile which we can directly
-apply to the branch, preserving your commit message and name:
-
------------------------
-git format-patch origin
------------------------
-
-Just send the generated file via email to the i3-discuss mailing list, see
-http://i3wm.org/contact/
+Do not send emails to the mailing list or any author directly, and don’t submit
+them in the bugtracker, since all reviews should be done in public at
+http://cr.i3wm.org/. In order to make your review go as fast as possible, you
+could have a look at previous reviews and see what the common mistakes are.
