[Tracker-discuss] [issue605] Python tracker needs two classes of "easy" issues -- requiring C or not

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum added the comment:

Thanks Berker! I agree the discussion shouldn't be narrowly about the
keywords and how to assign them -- we could also do a better job of guiding
new contributors. From Shubeksha's blog post it seems that we're doing
almost nothing in this area -- people scanning the easy issues are quickly
turned off.

FWIW in mypy we've got two separate keywords -- one for newbie issues and
one for easy issues. The newbie issues are meant to be easy enough to guide
people through their first contribution ever. The easy ones are easy once
you have mastered the pull request workflow etc.
