-If you develop a bugfix or enhancement for GTK+, please file that in

-must be offered under the terms of the GNU LGPL license, so be sure you
-are authorized to give us the patch under those terms.
+If you develop a bugfix or enhancement for GTK+, please open a merge
+request in GitLab as well. You should not attach patches to an issue,
+or describe the fix as a comment. Merge requests allow us to build
+GTK+ with your code applied, and run the test suite, on multiple platforms
+and architectures, and verify that nothing breaks. They also allow us to
+do proper code reviews, so we can iterate over the changes.
