+# Contributing on SIG Network
+
+Welcome!
+
+Thank you for your interest in contributing to SIG Network. Here we cover all
+things networking within and around Kubernetes clusters. This SIG covers a lot
+of ground, see our [charter] and our [README.md] for more details. If you get
+stuck please feel free to reach out for help in our `#sig-network` channel on
+[Kubernetes Slack]!
+
+[charter]:/sig-network/charter.md
+[README.md]:/sig-network/README.md
+[Kubernetes Slack]:https://kubernetes.slack.com
+
+## For Kubernetes Code Contributions
+
+See the [Kubernetes Contributor Guide].
+
+[Kubernetes Contributor Guide]:https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/contributors/guide#contributor-guide
+
+### For Enhancements
+
+Firstly find out [if your thing is an enhancement].
+
+Once you're sure your thing is in fact an enhancement, you can follow the
+[standard Kubernetes Enhancement Proposal (KEP) procedures][kep].
+
+> **Note**: This process can be a huge time investment and you should deeply
+> consider that before you start the process. Depending on what it is, it can
+> _potentially take years to achieve_.
+
+[if your thing is an enhancemment]:https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/?tab=readme-ov-file#is-my-thing-an-enhancement
+[kep]:https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/blob/master/keps/README.md
+
+#### Important: Additional "getting started" guidance
+
+In SIG Network we _highly_ recommend staying away from "How will this be
+implemented?" at first. Instead, focus on these things first:
+
+- **"What?"**: What is this at a high level? Without getting into implementation
+  details, what does it achieve? What are the goals?
+- **"Why?"**: Why do we need this? What motivates this? Is this generally
+  applicable?
+- **"Who?"**: Who else in the community needs this? Who can join us in making
+  this KEP a success?
+
+> **Note**: Ultimately the "Who?" is an extremely important question. If you
+> have 1 or more (ideally at least 2) other community members who are on board
+> and can help you move the KEP forward, this can be a tremendous boon.
+
+Get consensus on the "What?", "Why?" and "Who?" first, avoiding discussion of
+"How?" it can be done (if feasible) until there's broad consensus that we have
+the appropriate goals and motivation covered to do it. Join us in the community
+and discuss your ideas ahead of time!

 2. Are there any areas and/or subprojects that your group needs help with (e.g. fewer than 2 active OWNERS)?

+While there are no SIG Network projects which _couldn't_ benefit from more help
+and contributions, the following is a list of specific projects where there are
+known blockers (or otherwise critical needs) where more contributions, feedback,
+or implementation support is the key to "unblocking" them:
+
+- [InGate] is a new project just getting started creating a Gateway API implementation, and needs contributors to join and get to the first release.
+- [Network Policy] could use more implementations to join and support some of our newer APIs (e.g. [AdminNetworkPolicy]) to help them graduate towards GA.
+- [MultiNetwork] has started anew with CRD based development and is in need of use cases and implementations to join to get to the first release.
+- [Gateway API]
+  - has a large number of [features which are not yet standard] which could use implementations to join us to help us graduate those towards GA.
+  - has two CLI utilities which need more users and implementations to get involved to provide feedback: [ingress2gateway], [gwctl]
+- [Gateway API Inference Extension] is a new project which provides AI/ML inference routing and load-balancing features. It is in need of more implementations to bring use cases and and contribute in order to help graduate the APIs towards GA.
+- If you're interested in [DRA] for networking, we started a new [CNI] driver this year which could use more contributors: [cni-dra-driver]
