See the thread 'The trouble with "Easy" issues' in core-mentorship@python.org. Essentially those "easy" issues aren't so easy, and we're starting over. (That list requires subscription before you can read it, but any core dev should be able to get a subscription.)

Hmmm... I haven't looked lately, but didn't there used to be an "easy"
tag which purported to serve roughly the same purpose? I see an "Easy
issues" link in the left-hand sidebar:

https://bugs.python.org/issue?status=1&@sort=-activity&@columns=id%2Cactivity%2Ctitle%2Ccreator%2Cstatus&@dispname=Easy%20issues&@startwith=0&@group=priority&keywords=6&@action=search&@filter=&@pagesize=50

This issue has the "easy" keyword:

https://bugs.python.org/issue19217

Are "newcomer friendly" and "easy" aimed at somewhat different targets?
