Welcome! 

We are putting together a guide that describes some of the details (and
soon best practices) related to getting work done in the SIG Ecosystem:

https://wiki.centos.org/SIGGuide

Each SIG decides its own develop/review/build workflow within our
framework, so you may want to sit in on a few SIG meetings to see how
folks are doing things:

If you have questions about CBS itself, feel free to find us here or in
#centos-devel on Freenode.
