DRM Maintainer Tools
====================
+This documentation covers the tools and workflows for maintaining and
+contributing to the Linux kernel DRM subsystem's drm-misc and drm-intel
+repositories. The intended audience is primarily the maintainers and committers
+of said repositories, but the workflow documentation may be useful for anyone
+interested in the kernel graphics subsystem development.
+
+Both drm-misc and drm-intel are maintained using the same tools and very similar
+workflows. Both feed to the same testing and integration tree, the drm-tip. The
+documentation here is mostly shared, highlighting the differences in workflows
+where applicable.
+
+Please use the `dim-tools@lists.freedesktop.org`_ mailing list for
+contributions, bug reports, and discussion about the tooling and documentation.
