+# Pull Requests
+
+Pull requests should be made against the `working` branch.
+
+# Coding Guidelines
+
+In general, I follow strict pep8 and pyflakes.  All code must pass these tests. Since we support python 2.4-3.4, pyflakes reports unknown names in python 3.  pyflakes is run in python 2.7 only in my tests.
+
+# Supported Python Versions
+
+All code needs to support Python 2.4-3.4.
+
