+Intro on Cairo coolness
+=======================
+
+Cairo has a very clean code base that is a pleasure to read.  We believe that
+source code should be written with being read by humans as a primary goal.
+
+We also have a great community of users and developers, and use the same mailing
+list for both user questions and development discussions.  This has proved to
+be a very effective way of helping users become developers gradually.  It all
+starts by submitting that small first patch.  Same thing about our IRC channel.
+Feel free to join and watch for a few days, to get the hang of it.  We never
+say "this is not the right list/channel for this question/discussion".
+Mailing list and IRC information can be found [here](http://cairographics.org/contact/).
