+## Contacting The SQLite Developers
+
+The preferred way to ask questions or make comments about SQLite or to
+report bugs against SQLite is to visit the 
+[SQLite Forum](https://sqlite.org/forum) at <https://sqlite.org/forum/>.
+Anonymous postings are permitted.
+
+If you think you have found a bug that has security implications and
+you do not want to report it on the public forum, you can send a private
+email to drh at sqlite dot org.
+
+## Public Domain
+
+The SQLite source code is in the public domain.  See
+<https://sqlite.org/copyright.html> for details. 
+
+Because SQLite is in the public domain,
+we cannot accept pull requests, because
+if we did accept a pull request, the changes in that pull request would
+carry a copyright and the SQLite source code would no longer be fully in
+the public domain.
