See Mentors for how to help contributors directly.

Helping improve the process for engaging new developer contributors

• Discuss contributor engagement on #mozillians and mozillians@lists.mozilla.org
• Fix a contrib-engagement bug
• File a [contrib-engagement] bug to make entry to mozilla easy for new contributors (any bug with [contrib-engagement] in the whiteboard).

Figure out these queries

• TODO: list of blank r?
• TODO: list of blank f?
• TODO: uncommitted r+ed patches
• TODO: list of 1st patches
• Search the list of reviews which were denied. Ask the contributor if they need any help. Offer to help them over IRC and email.
