+For CakePHP Framework issues please use this [issue tracker](https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/issues).
+
+Describe the big picture of your changes here to communicate to the maintainers why we should accept this pull request. If it fixes a bug or resolves a feature request, be sure to link to that issue.
+
+The best way to propose a feature is to open an issue first and discuss your ideas there before implementing them.
+
+Always follow the [contribution guidelines](https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md) guidelines when submitting a pull request. In particular, make sure existing tests still pass, and add tests for all new behavior. When fixing a bug, you may want to add a test to verify the fix.
