 # 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 
-```

-
-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.
