+# Maintaining the repository
+
+I keep my development of the package (in particular, the master branch) at
+GitHub and I usually try to have my changes there, since I am not always
+with my SSH/GPG keys at hand.
+
+For the benefit of the co-maintainers, I keep a backup copy of the changes
+at git.debian.org, where, due to said keys not being available at all times,
+I can't push my changes, which leads, sometimes to my GitHub repository to
+be ahead of the Debian mirror.
+
+I prefer that, if possible, when working with the master branch:
+
+* People send me pull requests there
+* If they are not comfortable with the use of GitHub for any kind of reason
+ (political, ideological etc.), that they send me patches via email (git
+ send-email is best).
