I wrote a few things about contributing to Rust. What with the imminent 1.0 release, now is a great time to learn more about Rust and contribute code, tests, or docs to Rust itself or a bunch of other exciting projects.

The main thing I wanted to do was make it easy to find issues to work on. I also stuck in a few links to various things that new contributors should find useful.

I hope it is useful, and feel free to ping me (nrc in #rust-internals) if you want more info.
