-### Meeting Notes
+### Request for Comments (RFC)
 
-React team meets once a week to discuss the development of React, future plans, and priorities. You can find the meeting notes in a [dedicated repository](https://github.com/reactjs/core-notes/).
+Many changes, including bug fixes and documentation improvements can be implemented and reviewed via the normal GitHub pull request workflow.
+
+Some changes though are "substantial", and we ask that these be put through a bit of a design process and produce a consensus among the React core team.
+
+The "RFC" (request for comments) process is intended to provide a consistent and controlled path for new features to enter the project. You can contribute by visiting the [rfcs repository](https://github.com/reactjs/rfcs).
