+The most common form of contribution to any open source project are bug reports.
+We always welcome them because we want to be aware of any shortcomings in our code in order to make the product better.
+However, as much as we would love to to fix all reported issues in a timely manner, unfortunately we do not always have the resources to do so.
+Therefore we would like to ask for your help by either of:
+
+1. Fixing the problem and sending us a pull request instead of working around issues with your own custom passes or in other ways.
+In most cases the former is no more difficult and takes just as much time. Besides, we are always here to help;
+2. Using our support options at https://github.com/mono/CppSharp#support which guarantees a much faster resolution.
