+## Content guidelines
+
+What kind of content is welcome on Write Free Software?
+
+### Main content
+
+The main content is narrowly focused on the following topics:
+
+- Introduction to free software philosophy
+- Informational resources on free software in practice, e.g. using licenses
+
+The main content should not endorse any specific free software projects other
+than those relevant to the development of free software itself (e.g. free
+software licenses, software forges, etc), and should generally avoid using them
+as examples.
+
+### Blog
+
+The blog is open to any contributors, and you are encouraged to write a post
+about free software for it :)
+
+The scope of the blog is limited to matters related to free software philosophy
+and the implementation of free software, but the scope is not so strict as the
+main content. Details regarding specific projects and communities and their
+approach to implementing free software practices, community management, and so
+on, are welcome here.
+
+### Style guidelines
+
+- Use "free software" rather than "open source" unless specifically referring
+ to the open source movement
+
+## Code of conduct
+
+Participants are expected to respect the [Contributor Covenant Code of
+Conduct][0]. Conduct questions and problem reports should be directed to [Drew
+DeVault](mailto:sir@cmpwn.com).

-TODO: write me
+I'm pleased to announce the publication of [Write Free Software](/) today! This
+website is a new resource for the Free Software community which aims to provide
+a comprehensive and accessible entry-point and reference for the free software
+movement. We aim to educate others on free software philosophy and practice, to
+help people understand why free software is important and how to put it into
+practice.
+
+Come here to learn things like:
+
+- [What is free software?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/)
+- [How do free software licenses work?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/licenses/)
+- [How does copyleft work?](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/copyleft/)
+- [How to choose a free software license](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/participate/choose-a-license/)
+- [How to re-use free software](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/participate/derived-works/)
+
+And [much more](https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/)!
+
+The main content area of Write Free Software provides a lot of useful
+informational resources about how free software works and how its principles can
+be applied, but that's not all there is to free software. The [blog][1], though
+it's just getting started, will provide a lot more free-form resources to help
+maintainers and contributors better understand how to work effectively in free
+software.
+
+Future topics for the blog include:
+
+[1]: /blog
+
+- Building and managing your free software communities
+- Breakdowns of specific free software licenses
+- Commercial participation in free software
+- The importance of copyleft in practice
+
+Want to help with these or any other ideas?
