AFAIK not yet.

I was thinking about putting up a `new contributors` page, with some
helpful information including a link to the beginners label. I was
hoping to put something up for review in the next couple of days, if
anybody thinks that would be useful.

Cheers,
Florian

Sounds like a good idea and I'll happily review.

I have put up a first version of a page for (new) contributors to LLVM 
up for review: https://reviews.llvm.org/D41665

Looking forward to your comments.

Hi,


the first version of the contributing page is now online, thanks to Tanya for
sorting out the doc build issue: https://llvm.org/docs/Contributing.html


The page is intended as a first point of entry for (new) contributors to LLVM,
so I think it would make sense to link it on somewhere on https://llvm.org/,
what do you think?


Maybe it would also be worth mentioning it in the README or have a CONTRIBUTING
file in the project root.


Cheers,

Florian
