+<h4>Keeping the tree green</h4>
+<p>In either case, your responsibility for the patch does not end with the patch landing in the tree. There may be regressions from your change or additional feedback from reviewers after the patch has landed. You can watch the tree at <a href="http://build.webkit.org">build.webkit.org</a> to make sure your patch builds and passes tests on all platforms.  It is your responsibility to be available should regressions arise and to respond to additional feedback that happens after a check-in.</p>
+
+<p>Changes should succeed on all platforms, but it can be difficult to test on every platform WebKit supports.  Be certain that your change does not introduce new test failures on the high-traffic Mac or Windows ports by comparing the list of failing tests before and after your change.  Your change must at least compile on all platforms.</p>
+
+<h4 id="commitqueue">Optional: Use of the WebKit Commit Bot</h4>
 <p>WebKit provides an automated system (commit-queue) for landing patches for any who would like to use it.  To use the commit-queue, set the <tt>commit-queue:?</tt> flag on your patch.  A committer will set <tt>commit-queue:+</tt> and an automated process will download, build, run the layout tests, and submit your patch on your behalf.  If the <a href="http://build.webkit.org/">WebKit buildbots</a> are passing, your patch should be landed within 15 minutes after <tt>commit-queue:+</tt> is set. See the <a href="https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/CommitQueue">commit-queue documentation</a> for more information.</p>
