+*** Non-ASCII characters in Emacs files
+
+If you introduce non-ASCII characters into Emacs source files, it is a
+good idea to add a 'coding' cookie to the file to state its encoding.
+Please use the UTF-8 encoding unless it cannot do the job for some
+good reason. As of Emacs 24.4, it is no longer necessary to have
+explicit 'coding' cookies in *.el files if they are encoded in UTF-8,
+but other files need them even if encoded in UTF-8. However, if
+an *.el file is intended for use with older Emacs versions (e.g. if
+it's also distributed via ELPA), having an explicit encoding
+specification is still a good idea.
+
+*** Useful files in the admin/ directory
+
See all the files in admin/notes/* . In particular, see
admin/notes/newfile, see admin/notes/repo.
+The file admin/MAINTAINERS records the areas of interest of frequent
+Emacs contributors. If you are making changes in one of the files
+mentioned there, it is a good idea to consult the person who expressed
+an interest in that file, and/or get his/her feedback for the changes.
+If you are a frequent contributor and have interest in maintaining
+specific files, please record those interests in that file, so that
+others could be aware of that.
