Great news, just a tiny bit from me. I read the other day in the OpenSource report sponsored by the Ford Foundation a CPython contributor stating that we have an all time high count of Python users but an all time low number of contributors to CPython. I don't know how but we certainly need a fake path to help people start contributing and level up to gain a pool of resources We don't need to wait for easy issues or things like that or wait for PR merge to level up. Yet you always see it: new people not knowing where to start, highly skilled contributors drowning and intermediate contributors moving slowly I know all contributors are doing awesome work but maybe something can be done to have a smarter skilling up stream
