+## Rspec issues labels definition
+
+### `Your first PR` issues
+
+These issues are the ones that we be believe are best suited for new
+contributors to get started on. They represent a potential meaningful
+contribution to the project that should not be too hard to pull off.
+
+### `Needs reproduction case` issues
+
+These issues are ones that have been labelled by the maintainers that we
+believe do not currently have enough information to be reproduced the RSpec
+team. While not directly counted by the GitHub contribution graph, we consider
+helping us to reproduce the issue with a repro case as an extremely meaningful
+contribution.
+
+### `Has reproduction case` issues
+
+These issues are the ones that have reproduction cases, able to start working on
+immediately. These are good ones to tackle to help us actively fix bugs.
+
+## Maintenance branches
+
+Maintenance branches are how we manage the different supported point releases
+of RSpec. As such, while they might look like good candidates to merge into
+master, please do not open pull requests to merge them.

+
+Hi there! Here's a few pointers to help us help you with your issue as quickly
+as possible.
+
+We prefer that the RSpec Rails issue tracker be mainly used for bug reports.
+Feature requests or general requests for help should go to our google group:
+[email protected]. We use that as our primary location for higher level
+RSpec discussions.
+
+If you are filing a bug report, there's a few steps it'd be super if you could
+follow. If you can't do all of these, don't worry, but if you can it'll help us
+resolve your bug faster!

+## What Ruby, Rails and RSpec versions are you using?

+## Observed behaviour
+
+<!--
+please provide a concise description of the behaviour you are observing with
+RSpec and Rails
+-->
+
+## Expected behaviour
+
+<!--
+Please provide a description of what you expect to be happening, and how that
+differs from the current behaviour.
+-->
+
+## Can you provide an example app?
+
+<!--
+This step is probably the most important in allowing us to quickly debug
+your issue, and we typically ask that you follow these steps:
+
+1. `rails new` an app at the specific version of ruby and rails that you are
+   using
+2. commit that app, so that we have the rails skeleton in a separate commit
+3. Make all the changes necessary (adding RSpec, models, specs, controllers,
+   etc) to reproduce the issue. There should be a failing test or tests that you
+   expect to pass. We'll run `bundle exec rspec`, but if you can provide a
+   readme with more detailed instructions that'd be amazing :)
+4. Commit
+5. Provide a link to a github repo, a description of the app and what you're expecting here
