-### How to start a SIG
-
-* Propose the new SIG publicly, including a brief mission statement, by emailing kubernetes-dev@googlegroups.com and kubernetes-users@googlegroups.com, then wait a couple of days for feedback
-* Create a group with at least 2 owners (and one of which should be sarahnovotny at google.com): kubernetes-sig-foo@googlegroups.com
-  * Put a description of the topic in the welcome message
-  * Set "Join the group" and "Post" to "Public"
-* Ask a repo maintainer to create a github label, if one doesn't already exist: sig/foo
-* If you wish, request a new [kubernetes.slack.com](http://kubernetes.slack.com) channel (#sig-foo) from @sarahnovotny.  New users can join at [slack.kubernetes.io](http://slack.kubernetes.io).
-* Organize video meetings as needed. No need to wait for the [Weekly Community Video Conference](community/README.md) to discuss. Please report summary of SIG activities there.
- * Request a Zoom account from @sarahnovotny if you expect more than 30 attendees or attendees from China.
- * Add the meeting to the community meeting calendar by inviting cgnt364vd8s86hr2phapfjc6uk@group.calendar.google.com.
-* Use existing proposal and PR process
-* Announce new SIG on kubernetes-dev@googlegroups.com and ask a repo maintainer to create a kubernetes/community directory and github team for the new group
-* Submit a PR to add any SIG-related docs, schedules, roadmaps, etc. to your new kubernetes/community/SIG-foo directory.
-* Slack activity is archived at [kubernetes.slackarchive.io](http://kubernetes.slackarchive.io).  To start archiving a new channel invite the slackarchive bot to the channel via `/invite @slackarchive`
