 BUG REPORTS
 -----------
+For help with problems, please contact the mailing list (above).  If you
+already know you have a bug, please file it with one of the bug trackers
+below.  With any problems and/or bug reports, it's always helpful for the
+developers to have the following information:
+
+- A small script that demonstrates the problem; this is not required, however,
+  it will get your issue looked at much faster than a description of the
+  problem alone.
+- Version of Perl (perl -v)
+- Versions of Gtk2-Perl modules (Glib/Gtk2/Pango/Cairo)
+- Optional, but nice to have: versions of GTK+ libraries on your system
+  (libglib, libgtk+, libpango, libcairo, etc.)
+
+There are multiple project bug trackers, please choose the one you are most
+comfortable with using and/or already have an account for.
+
+Request Tracker:
+- submitting bugs via the Web (requires a PAUSE account/Bitcard):
+  https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Report.html?Queue=Cairo
+- submitting bugs via e-mail (open to anyone with e-mail):
+  bug-Cairo [at] rt.cpan.org
+
+Gnome's bugtracker:
+- report bugs to the 'gnome-perl' product (requires login)
+  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gnome-perl
+
+OBTAINING SOURCE FROM THE GNOME.ORG GIT REPO
+--------------------------------------------
+Assuming you already have the 'git' command installed on your system, you can
+use the 'git://' protocol:
+
+git clone git://git.gnome.org/perl-Cairo
 
-Please report bugs to the gnome-perl product in GNOME's Bugzilla:
-<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=gnome-perl>
+Or, read-only access via HTTP:
+
+git clone http://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-Cairo
+
+To update an existing clone of the source:
+
+git pull
+
+Most Linux distros package the 'git' command in a package called 'git-core'.
+
+PATCH SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
+---------------------------
+You can send us patches by...
+- E-mailing it to the mailing list (above); please use a pastebin service of
+  some kind for longer patchfiles (over say 20k in size).
+- Those with gnome.org Git ID's can push trivial patches to git directly; if
+  you're not sure what a trivial patch is, please ask first on the mailing
+  list prior to pushing your commit.
