If you're interested in contributing to Python itself, you can consult
the Python devguide [1] for suggestions on how to get started.  I
would also recommend the core-mentorship mailing list[2][3], which is
a private (archives are only available to members) list where you can
ask any questions you may have.

Welcome! :)
