+Opening an issue
+----------------
+### Ask for a new feature
+
+Please:
+
+ * Check if the new feature is not already implemented (Changelog)
+ * Check if another person didn't already open an issue
+ * If there is already an opened issue there is no need to comment "+1", it won't help. Instead, you can subscribe to the issue to be notified of anything new about it
+
+### Report a bug
+
+Please:
+ 
+ * Try the latest developer build (http://builds.clementine-player.org/) to see if the bug is still present (**Attention**, those builds aren't stable so they might not work well and could sometimes break things like user settings). If it works like a charm even though you see an open issue, please comment on it and explain that the issue has been fixed
+ * Check if another person has already opened the same issue to avoid duplicates
+ * If there already is an open issue you could comment on it to add precisions about the problem or confirm it
+ * In case there isn't, you can open a new issue with an explicit title and as much information as possible (OS, Clementine version, how to reproduce the problem...)
+ * Please use http://pastebin.com/ for logs/debug
+ 
+If there are no answers, it doesn't mean we don't care about your feature request/bug. It just means we can't reproduce the bug or haven't had time to implement it :o)
