 ## Can I contribute?

 Yeah, sure. Please do.

+Please note, though, that all contributions will be treated as licensed under MPL-2.0. This is so that we can relicense to MPL-2.0 at some point in the future if we manage to move away from poppler as a backend (since that is the only dependency, at time of writing, which requires the GPLv3 license).
