+Thank you for creating a pull request to contribute to Adafruit's GitHub code!
+Before you open the request please review the following guidelines and tips to
+help it be more easily integrated:
+
+- **Describe the scope of your change--i.e. what the change does and what parts
+  of the code were modified.**  This will help us understand any risks of integrating
+  the code.
+
+- **Describe any known limitations with your change.**  For example if the change
+  doesn't apply to a supported platform of the library please mention it.
+
+- **Please run any tests or examples that can exercise your modified code.**  We
+  strive to not break users of the code and running tests/examples helps with this
+  process.
+
+Thank you again for contributing!  We will try to test and integrate the change
+as soon as we can, but be aware we have many GitHub repositories to manage and
+can't immediately respond to every request.  There is no need to bump or check in
+on a pull request (it will clutter the discussion of the request).
+
+Also don't be worried if the request is closed or not integrated--sometimes the
+priorities of Adafruit's GitHub code (education, ease of use) might not match the
+priorities of the pull request.  Don't fret, the open source community thrives on
+forks and GitHub makes it easy to keep your changes in a forked repo.
+
+After reviewing the guidelines above you can delete this text from the pull request.
