[Mono-dev] We should add Novice bugs tag in bugzill to new contributer

[Alan]

"To attact contributors it might be helpful to write down directions to parts
of code with an lower learning barrier"

The solution we use for this is for contributors to show up in the channel
and ask around. No area of the code is 'simple' really so you just have to
choose a bug you hate and then start asking questions until you're able to
solve it.
