Subject: [ruby-core:62876] [ruby-trunk - Bug #9254] ./doc/contributing.rdoc	-> CONTRIBUTING.md

Issue #9254 has been updated by Hiroshi SHIBATA.


current docs/contributing.rdoc is too long. I'm against to move it.

----------------------------------------
Bug #9254: ./doc/contributing.rdoc -> CONTRIBUTING.md
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9254#change-47003

* Author: Zachary Scott
* Status: Assigned
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Zachary Scott
* Category: doc
* Target version: next minor
* ruby -v: 2.1.0dev
* Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
I will abbreviate the current contributing document and move it to ./CONTRIBUTING.md ( in markdown format )

My goal is to encourage proper contributions for users of github, see also: https://github.com/blog/1184-contributing-guidelines

Contributions via github have recently increased tremendously, we should take full advantage and encourage new contributors with this easy to follow guide.

I plan to complete this after the release of 2.1.0
