| +Contributor notes | 
| +----------------- | 
| + | 
| +* virtualenv is designed to work on python 2 and 3 with a single code base. | 
| +  Use Python 3 print-function syntax, and always ``use sys.exc_info()[1]`` | 
| +  inside the ``except`` block to get at exception objects. | 
| + | 
| +* virtualenv uses git-flow_ to `coordinate development`_. The latest stable | 
| +  version should exist on the *master* branch, and new work should be | 
| +  integrated to *develop*. | 
| + | 
| +* All changes to files inside virtualenv_embedded should be integrated to | 
| +  ``virtualenv.py`` with ``bin/rebuild-script.py``. |
