The final decision on rewarding a participant rests with the maintainers ONLY.
Maintainers will label issues with `ASOC-ACCEPTED` tag to indicate their eligibility for the program. New issues introduced by the participants in the form of bugs (or) feature requests; can be worked upon only after approval from maintainers.
Read the `CONTRIBUTION.md` file present in each project carefully before contributing to the project.
In order to curb spamming, we have introduced penalties. A maintainer is free to reward a penalty to a contributor in cases of spamming and misdemeanour which will lead to reduction of total bounty.
