> This PR updates the `CONTRIBUTING.md` guide to address the following:
> 
> 1. Clarify the process for adding new features / API changes, specifically that they must be discussed on the mailing list as the first step.
> 2. Add a link to the mailing list in the section regarding contributing bug fixes.
> 3. Remove the text about cross-linking the PR and JBS issue, and add a note that the Skara tooling takes care of this
> 4. Remove the section about manually resolving the JBS issue, and add a note that the Skara bot automatically does this when the PR is integrated.
> 5. Suggest the use of the "/reviewers 2" and "/csr" commands when appropriate
> 6. Update the note regarding which JDK(s) to use.
