-# Wrap review guidelines
-
-In order to get a package in the Wrap database it must be reviewed and
-accepted by someone with admin rights. Here is a list of items to
-check in the review. If some item is not met it does not mean that the
-package is rejected. What should be done will be determined on a
-case-by-case basis. Similarly meeting all these requirements does not
-guarantee that the package will get accepted. Use common sense.
-
-## Setting up the tools
-
-The [mesonwrap repository](https://github.com/mesonbuild/mesonwrap)
-provides tools to maintain the WrapDB. Read-only features such can be
-used by anyone without Meson admin rights.
-
-## Personal access token
-
-Some tools require access to the Github API. A [personal access
-token](https://github.com/settings/tokens) may be required if the
-freebie Github API quota is exhausted. `public_repo` scope is required
-for write operations.
-
-```
-$ cat ~/.config/mesonwrap.ini
-[mesonwrap]
-github_token = <github token>
-```
-
-## Setting up the review tooling
-
-The [Mesonwrap](https://github.com/mesonbuild/mesonwrap/) repository
-contains review tooling. It is used to do the actual review, but
-submitters can also use it to check their MRs. All issues reported by
-the tool must be fixed, so using the tool can speed up the review
-process considerably.
-
-The tool has some dependencies that are not available in all Linux
-distributions. Thus using a Python
-[Virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/). The tool can be
-installed with the following commands.
-
-```
-git clone https://github.com/mesonbuild/mesonwrap.git
-cd mesonwrap
-python3 -m venv venv
-bash
-source venv/bin/activate
-pip install -r requirements.txt
-# You may need to install Meson and Ninja here as well depending on your setup
-python3 setup.py install
-mesonwrap review <see arguments below>
-exit <when you are finished>
-```
-
-## Reviewing code
-
-```
-mesonwrap review zlib --pull-request=1 [--approve]
-```
-
-Since not every check can be automated please pay attention to the
-following during the review:
-
-- Download link points to an authoritative upstream location.
-- Version branch is created from master.
-- Except for the existing code, `LICENSE.build` is mandatory.
-- `project()` has a version and it matches the source version.
-- `project()` has a license.
-- Complex `configure_file()` inputs are documented.
- If the file is a copy of a project file make sure it is clear what was changed.
-- Unit tests are enabled if the project provides them.
-- There are no guidelines if `install()` is a good or a bad thing in wraps.
-- If the project can't be tested on the host platform consider using the `--cross-file` flag.
- See [the issue](https://github.com/mesonbuild/mesonwrap/issues/125).
-
-Encourage wrap readability. Use your own judgement.
-
-## Approval
-
-If the code looks good use the `--approve` flag to merge it.
-The tool automatically creates a release.
-
-If you need to create a release manually (because, for example, a MR
-was merged by hand), the command to do it is the following:
-
-```shell
-mesonwrap publish reponame version
-```
-
-An example invocation would look like this:
-
-```shell
-mesonwrap publish expat 2.2.9
-```
