+# Contributing to the W3C WebExtensions Community Group
+
+This document describes how the WebExtensions Community Group (WECG) works and how interested parties can contribute.
+
+## Code of Conduct
+
+As a W3C Community Group, the WECG operates under the W3C's [Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct][w3c-code-of-conduct].
+
+## Getting started
+
+Interested in participating? We suggest you start by:
+
+1. Familiarizing yourself with the [Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct][w3c-code-of-conduct].
+2. [Joining the group][wecg-join] (you will need a [W3C account][w3c-new-account]).
+3. Looking through the [open issues][wecg-issues].
+4. Joining the [WECG chat room][join-chat].
+
+W3C membership is required because it provides the legal framework that protects the work in this repository.
+
+## Joining Chat
+
+This group uses a [Matrix][matrix-site] room hosted by Mozilla for chat. If you're new to Matrix, we recommend reading Mozilla's [wiki entry on Matrix][moz-wiki-matrix] to get started.
+
+Once you have a Matrix client set up, you can join our room using the below address in your client.
+
+```
+#wecg:mozilla.org
+```
+
+## How we work
+
+All WECG-related work currently takes place in the [web-extensions repository][wecg-repo] on GitHub. As a new group, we are currently in the process of establishing our conventions.
+
+## Reporting and Feedback
+
+Beyond posts needing moderator attention on Discourse, if you experience any violations to the above by any participant, please contact the Chairs or the W3C Head of Communications ([Coralie Mercier][email-coralie]).
