+# Maintenance documentation
+
+## Release
+Releases should be done by checking `make test`, cleaning using `make disclean` and consequently running `make dist`.
+This will create an app store ready package to be uploaded. 
+This process should be done by someone who has the private keys and the access to sign and upload such a package.
+
+## Support
+### PHP
+While the app should try to support all PHP versions that nextcloud currently supports,
+the real focus when deciding to cut a PHP version should be on maintenance burden. 
+Users are nice but devs should be a priority in decisions that are likely to impact them significantly.
+
+### Issues
+- Bug reports without test cases (feed url and action is enough) can be closed with or without comment.
+
+- Feature requests without thoughtful commentary or pull request can be closed with or without comment,
+unless a developer is interested to support such a future.
+
+- Issues without activity in the last 30 days can be closed with or without comment.
+If this is a bug you care about that isn't getting attention, fix it. 
+If you're good enough to understand the bug, you're good enough to fix it.
