+# Contributing to Eclipse Platform
+
+Thanks for your interest in this project.
+
+## Project description
+
+Eclipse Platform defines the set of frameworks and common services that
+collectively make up infrastructure required to support the use of Eclipse as a
+component model, as a Rich Client Platform (RCP) and as a comprehensive tool
+integration platform. These services and frameworks include a standard workbench
+user interface model and portable native widget toolkit, a project model for
+managing resources, automatic resource delta management for incremental
+compilers and builders, language-independent debug infrastructure, and
+infrastructure for distributed multi-user versioned resource management.
