 ## Contribution Policy
 
-Yaak was initially closed-source, with no plan of ever becoming open. However, open source does
-offer many benefits:
-
-- Full transparency over what is happening
-- Code can be audited
-- Users can help identify and fix bugs
-
-For these reasons, Yaak is now open source but only accepting contributions for bug fixes.
