+## Navigating the Registry
+
+As the Terraform Ecosystem continues to grow, the Registry is designed to make it easy to discover and search through integrations and solutions across dozens of categories. Select a Provider or Module card to learn more, use filters to select the tier (see tiers), or use the search at the top of the Registry to find what you’re looking for. Note that search supports keyboard navigation:
+
+![screenshot: terraform registry browse](./images/registry2.png)
+
+## User Account
+
+Anyone interested in publishing a Provider or Module can create an account and sign in to the Terraform Registry using a GitHub account. Choose Sign-in, and follow the login prompts. Once you have authorized the use of your GitHub account and are signed in, you are able to publish both Providers and Modules, directly from one of the Repositories you manage. To learn more, see [Publishing to the Registry](https://www.terraform.io/docs/registry/providers/publishing.html).

+## Getting Help
+
+We welcome any feedback you have throughout the process and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or issues with the Terraform Registry by sending us an [email](mailto:terraform-registry-beta@hashicorp.com). The providers and modules in The Terraform Registry are published and maintained either directly by HashiCorp, by trusted HashiCorp partners and the Terraform Community ([see tiers & namespaces](./providers/overview.html#provider-tiers-amp-namespaces)). If you run into issues or have additional contributions to make to a provider or module, you can submit a GitHub issue by selecting the "Report an issue" link on the detail view:

 The verified badge isn’t indicative of flexibility or feature support; very
 simple modules can be verified just because they're great examples of modules.
 Likewise, an unverified module could be extremely high quality and actively
 maintained. An unverified module shouldn't be assumed to be poor quality, it
 only means it hasn't been created by a HashiCorp partner.

 When [using registry modules](/docs/registry/modules/use.html), there is no
 difference between a verified and unverified module; they are used the same
 way.

+---
+
+# Overview
+
+ The Registry offers both a place for users to find Providers, and also acts as the Public origin source for Terraform, meaning that all published providers are directly available from within the Terraform CLI. Providers are how Terraform integrates with any upstream API, whether another HashiCorp technology, or the many hundreds of third-party services that Terraform integrates with today. Creating a Provider is designed to be easy and intuitive, and the Registry is here to help you share it with the rest of the community.
+
+## Provider Tiers & Namespaces
+
+Terraform Providers are published and maintained by a variety of sources, including HashiCorp, HashiCorp Technology Partners, and the Terraform Community. Tiers and Badges are used in the Registry to denote the source of the Provider. Additionally, namespaces are used to help users identify the organization or publisher responsible for the integration, as shown in the table below.

 # Publishing Providers
 
--> __Publishing Beta__<br>Welcome! Thanks for your interest participating in our Providers in the Registry beta! Paired with Terraform 0.13, our vision is to make it easier than ever to discover, distribute, and maintain your provider(s). We welcome any feedback you have throughout the process and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or issues by emailing terraform-registry-beta@hashicorp.com.
+Anyone can instantly publish and share a provider by signing into the Registry using their GitHub account and following a few easy steps. First we will walk through how to prepare a [Terraform Provider](https://www.terraform.io/docs/plugins/provider.html) for publishing, and then provide the steps to have it published live on the Registry.
+
 
 ## Preparing your Provider
 
 ### Writing a Provider
 
-Providers published to the Terraform Registry are written and built in the same way as other Terraform Providers. For guidance on how to write a provider, see [Writing Custom Providers](/docs/extend/writing-custom-providers.html).
+Providers published to the Terraform Registry are written and built in the same way as other Terraform Providers. A variety of resources are available to help our contributors build a quality integration:
 
-The provider repository on GitHub must match the pattern `terraform-provider-{NAME}`, and the repository must be public.

-#### Licensing a Verified Provider

-All Terraform Verified providers must contain one of the following open source licenses. This requirement does not apply to Community providers:
-
-* CDDL 1.0, 2.0
-* CPL 1.0
-* Eclipse Public License (EPL) 1.0
-* MPL 1.0, 1.1, 2.0

-* Boost Software License
-* BSD, BSD 3-clause, "BSD-new"
-* CC-BY
-* Microsoft Public License (MS-PL)
-* MIT
 
 ### Documenting your Provider
 
 Your provider should contain an overview document (index.md), as well as a doc for each resource and data-source. See [Documenting Providers](./docs.html) for details about how to ensure your provider documentation renders properly on the Terraform Registry.
 
--> In order to test how documents will render in the Terraform Registry, you can use the [Terraform Registry Doc Preview Tool](https://registry.terraform.io/tools/doc-preview).
