+= Development Standards for the PACK Project
+
+This document describes the standard processes and practices used in the
+development of this project. All participation must be done in the spirit
+of these guidelines.
+
+Above all else, the goal is clear, elegant, high-performance code written,
+tested and maintained collaboratively in an open and inviting environment.
+
+== Technology
+
+PACK is written with Elixir (http://elixir-lang.org/) and Phoenix Framework
+(http://www.phoenixframework.org/), a language and web app framework designed
+for high reliability and scalability.
+
+The SQL backend used for structured data is PostgreSQL.
+
+== Team Coordination
+
+Development roadmaps, sprints, defect reports, code review and more all happens
+on http://git.kolab.org. This is our primary tool for day-to-day development
+and the best place to follow and participate in the project.
+
+Discussion between developers, designers, and users occurs on devel@kolab.org,
+the Kolab Community Hub web forums, and the #kolab irc channel on
+irc.freenode.net.
+
+We work in weekly sprints where we tackle tasks recorded on git.kolab.org. See
+development workflow below.
+
+== Tools and Practices
+
+=== Coding Style
+
+This project follows the Elixir community style guide:
+
+ http://elixir.community/styleguide
+
+Rule of thumb: write code that looks like the code that already exists in
+the repository!
+
+=== Development Workflow
+
+The basic workflow can be described as:
+
+ * create a task on git.kolab.org
+ * create a corresponding branch in git
+ * write tests and application code
+ * create a review request when ready
+ * iterate until consensus is the branch is ready for merging
+ * merge branch into main development branch (develop)
+
+All development should map to a task on git.kolab.org on the PACK project
+workboards. This allows us to keep momentum and focus collectively as a team.
+These tasks are priotized on the shared PACK workboard, from which we organize
+weekly development sprints.
+
+The main PACK workboard contains the epics ahead of us, and their status. Each
+actively developed epic has its own workboard as a sub-project, and these boards
+are populated with individual tasks which are claimed by developers and scheduled
+into sprints.
+
+Git Flow is used for daily development:
+
+ https://github.com/nvie/gitflow
+
+In practice this means that all new development happens in feature branches
+based on the develop branch. Features considered "ready" are merged into
+develop, and periodically a release is made which results in develop being
+merged into master. Bug fixes are also done in branches, with one branch
+per fix, and these can be merged down into develop as well; if it must
+be shipped immediately then it may be done in a hotfix branch (branched
+from master) and trigger a new release. Thankfully, all of this branch
+gymnastics is managed for us with the `git flow` tool.
+
+
+=== Code Review
+
+All new development goes through code review prior to acceptance. We use
+git.kolab.org for code review, and you can create/modify differentials using
+the arc command line tool or the web interface. Reviews are made available
+here:
+
+ https://git.kolab.org/differential/
+
+Tests are a must. While we are not obsessive about hitting 100% coverage,
+we are obsessive about useful and complete testing. Of course, being written
+in Elixir, we use ExUnit for testing. Also consider the use of property
+based testing with ExCheck when and where appropriate.
+
+Credo is included as a dev dependency and used regularly to "lint" the
+code base. Every contributor is encouraged to run `mix credo` from time to time
+and take action on the issues it notes.
+
+=== tsung
+
+We use tsung for performance and load testing:
+
+ http://tsung.erlang-projects.org/
+
+Every public API should have a corresponding tsung workload defined, and
+be classified into one of three categories of performance profiles:
+
+ * high concurrency, quick response: 100k+ simultaneous users with minimal
+ wallclock time to response
+ * high concurrency: 100k+ simultaneous users, response time not important
+ * low concurrency: less than 1000 simultaneous users, measure for response
+ time and correctness
+
+== Release Schedule
+
+As this is an embryotic project, there is currently no release schedule.
