 # Common tools for generation of packages in the actions/*-versions repositories
 This repository contains PowerShell modules that are used to generate packages for Actions. The packages are consumed by the images generated through [actions/runner-images](https://github.com/actions/runner-images) and some of the setup-* Actions
 
-## Recommended permissions
-
-When using the `versions-package-tools` in your GitHub Actions workflow, it is recommended to set the following permissions to ensure proper functionality:
-
-```yaml
-permissions:
-  contents: read # access to read repository's content
-  actions: read # access to reading actions 
-```

While GitHub Actions remains a key part of this vision, we are allocating resources towards other areas of Actions and are not taking contributions to this repository at this time. The GitHub public roadmap is the best place to follow along for any updates on features we’re working on and what stage they’re in.
-
-We are taking the following steps to better direct requests related to GitHub Actions, including:
-
-1. We will be directing questions and support requests to our [Community Discussions area](https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/categories/actions)
-
-2. High Priority bugs can be reported through Community Discussions or you can report these to our support team https://support.github.com/contact/bug-report.
-
-3. Security Issues should be handled as per our [security.md](security.md)
-
-We will still provide security updates for this project and fix major breaking changes during this time.
