+## Generated files
+
+Some source code files are machine generated. At the moment these are only
+[cvss20enums.go](../csaf/cvss20enums.go) and [cvss3enums.go](../csaf/cvss3enums.go) on the
+basis of the [Advisory JSON schema](../csaf/schema/csaf_json_schema.json).
+
+If you change the source files please regenerate the generated files
+with `go generate ./...` in the root folder and add the updated files
+to the version control.
+
+If you plan to add further machine generated files ensure that they
+are marked with comments like
+```
+// THIS FILE IS MACHINE GENERATED. EDIT WITH CARE!
+```
