+## Creating a new SIG
+
+The process of creating a new SIG involves two major components:
+community building and the administrative side.
+
+Bring your SIG proposal first to the centos-devel mailing list to find
+other like-minded people who wish to start the SIG with you. Also look
+around outside of the CentOS project for people who may want to
+distribute projects on CentOS
+
+Once you have a core group that wants to make this happen, open a ticket
+on the [board issue tracker](https://git.centos.org/centos/board/issues)
+with your proposed SIG, and someone there will walk you through the
+process.
