+# Contributing to Bootstrap
+
 Recommendations and requirements for how to best contribute to Bootstrap. We strive to obey these as best as possible, though we may drift as development continues in our primary development branches. As always, thanks for contributing--we hope these guidelines make it easier and shed some light on our approach and processes.
 
 ### Key branches
 - `master` is the latest, deployed version
-- `*-wip` is the official branch for the next release

 ### Notes on the repo
 As of v2.0.0, Bootstrap's documentation is powered by Mustache templates and built via `make` before each commit and release. This was done to enable internationalization (translation) in a future release by uploading our strings to the [Twitter Translation Center](http://translate.twttr.com/). Any edits to the docs should be first done in the Mustache files and then recompiled into the HTML.

 - Attribute selectors, like `input[type="text"]` should always wrap the attribute's value in double quotes, for consistency and safety (see this [blog post on unquoted attribute values](http://mathiasbynens.be/notes/unquoted-attribute-values) that can lead to XSS attacks).
