@csabella If you have any comments or would like to review, I would appreciate it. |
| `issue tracker`_. The `issue tracker`_ is also commonly referred to as | ||
| `bugs.python.org` and `bpo`. Documentation bugs can also be reported there. | ||

| You can report bugs with how the issue tracker functions to the `meta tracker`_. |

For some reason, I don't find the line about the meta tracker easy to read. First time through, I had read it twice to understand what was being said. Maybe 'You can report bugs with the issue tracker itself to the meta tracker.'?

| in modules which you have a working knowledge. Search for the name of a module | ||
| in the issue tracker or use the `advanced search`_ to search for specific | ||
| components (e.g. "Windows" if you are a Windows developer, "Extension Modules" | ||
| if you are familiar with C, etc.). Finally you can use the "Random issue" link |

The random button has been broken for awhile and I have an open ticket on the Meta Tracker. It opens a new issue daily, but stays the same for the whole day. So, I made a Python program to open random issues for myself. :-)

Cool, feel free to link to the source for your open issue generator here in this issue. Other folks may find it helpful themselves.

I don't have it published anywhere since it was just a quick script. Should I upload it my github account and link to it there? Here it is, so maybe I should polish it first? I download the csv file manually so that I don't hit the server every time I run the job.
import csv
import random
import time
import webbrowser
file = '/home/cheryl/cpython/buglist_20180211.csv'
browser = webbrowser.get(using='firefox')
with open(file, newline='') as csvfile:
reader = csv.DictReader(csvfile)
open_items = [row['id'] for row in reader]
if open_items:
browser.open_new('https://bugs.python.org')
time.sleep(0.5)
for i in range(10):
choice = random.choice(open_items)
browser.open(f'https://bugs.python.org/issue{choice}')
print(choice)

Thanks @willingc! Looks great! One thing I couldn't comment on because it wasn't a changed line, but do you think OpenID should be a link? |

Thanks @csabella @brettcannon for the reviews. I appreciate them |

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Partially addresses #120.
This PR is prompted by recent discussion on "core mentorship" list. It's a refresh of the section.
