  Discuss documentation, testing, webmastering, and/or publicity.
  
  Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).
  
  Example:

Q: What's a good bug for a newcomer to tackle?

  We also try to keep the priority right. All with priority = 9 are blockers for us.
  
  It's hard to tell what bugs are good for newcomers. That really depends on the experience and the available time.
  
  In any case, best would be to contact the devs first.

  Many projects have good small tasks that can teach newcomers how the project works. Now's your chance to share one of them!
  
  Include URLs if relevant (we'll automatically linkify them).
