+At the moment, the focus is on changes that will make future maintenance and

-If you would like to add a new feature or alter existing functionality in the
-Python code, please reach out on the support site before you begin work, as
-some changes may be more appropriately done in an add-on instead.
+New features are not currently the top priority, unless they are easy wins as
+part of the refactoring process.
 
-Please hold off on large refactoring projects for now, as it risks introducing
-bugs, and many addons currently rely on certain variable/method names and
-type signatures. If you're working on an isolated part of the codebase
-covered by unit tests, then such changes may be accepted, but larger changes
-are less likely to be at this time.
+If you are planning to contribute any non-trivial changes, please reach out
+on the support site before you begin work. Some areas (primary pylib/) are
+likely to change/conflict with other work, and larger changes will likely need
+to wait until the refactoring process nears completion.
 
 Type hints

-automated tools. At the moment, large parts of the codebase are still missing
-type hints, and some of the hints that do exist are incorrect or too general.

 When running 'make check', Anki uses mypy to typecheck the code. Mypy only
 checks functions that have type signatures, so adding more type signatures to
