No, not inappropriate per se, but given your motivation, you may want to
post (and subscribe) to matplotlib-devel instead/also.  Also, if you "dig
around" at the main site--matplotlib.org--I think you'll be able to find a
history of the package (if not, pretty sure Wikipedia has one), and
definitely contributor guidance (e.g.,
https://matplotlib.org/devel/gitwash/development_workflow.html?highlight=history
and
https://matplotlib.org/devel/gitwash/maintainer_workflow.html?highlight=history,
both of which I found by entering "history" into the home page search box;
however, both of those results are "advanced," so dig around more for "how
to get started" and "style and documentation guidlines").  Happy hunting,
and thanks for being interested in contributing!
