 # Contributing
-Stocknear is open-source software and you're welcome to contribute to its development.
+Stocknear is an open-source project, soley maintained by Muslem Rahimi.
 
-The core idea of stocknear shall always be: ***Fast*** & ***Simple***.
+We are not accepting pull requests. However, you are more than welcome to fork the project and customize it to suit your needs.
+
+The core idea of stocknear shall always be: **_Fast_**, **_Simple_** & **_Efficient_**.
 
-If want to contribute to the codebase please follow these guidelines:
-- Refactoring slow code into fast code is a huge plus!
-- Reducing complexity and increasing simplicity/readability is a huge plus!
-- Anything you claim is a "speedup" must be benchmarked. In general, the goal is simplicity, so even if your PR makes things marginally faster, you have to consider the tradeoff with maintainablity and readablity.
-- If your PR looks "complex", is a big diff, or adds lots of lines, it won't be reviewed or merged. Consider breaking it up into smaller PRs that are individually clear wins. A common pattern I see is prerequisite refactors before adding new functionality. If you can (cleanly) refactor to the point that the feature is a 3 line change, this is great, and something easy for us to review.
