-Please be aware that we are a loose team of volunteers so patience is
-necessary; assistance handling other issues is very welcome. We value
-all user contributions, no matter how minor they are. If we are slow to
-review, either the pull request needs some benchmarking, tinkering,
-convincing, etc. or more likely the reviewers are simply busy. In either

+Thank you for your patience. Changes to scikit-learn require careful
+attention, but with limited maintainer time, not every contribution can be reviewed
+quickly.
