+A QMK collaborator is a keyboard maker/designer that is interested in helping QMK grow and fully support their keyboard(s), and encouraging their users/customers to submit features, ideas, and keymaps. We're always looking to add more keyboards and collaborators, but we ask that they fulfill these requirements:
+
+* **Have a PCB available for sale** - unfortunately there's just too much variation and complications with handwired keyboards.
+* **Maintain the your keyboard's directory** - this may just require an initial setup to get your keyboard working, but it could also include accommodating changes made to QMK's core.
+* **Approve and merge their keyboard's keymap pull requests** - we like to encourage users to contribute their keymaps for others to see and work from when creating their own.
+
+If you feel you meet these requirements, shoot us an email at hello@qmk.fm with an introduction and some links to your keyboard!
