Angela "webchick" Byron talks about the process of being a co-maintainer for the next major release of Drupal 7 as well as her original intentions, collaboration strategies and patch review strategies that she's used throughout the development cycle. She also talks about some of the new features that she's excited about in Drupal 7, which she presented much more in depth on at DrupalCon Paris. You can check out the slides and videos from her last two DrupalCon Drupal 7 status updates posted here. And you can also read more about her 6-pass patch review process.

drupal.org issue tags

Angie mentions the novice tag for small code issues. I know there's also the quick fix tag (which replace the patchnewbie user) so I'm wondering what the different well-known tags are where people can help out. I'm not so much talking about the Drupal 7 specific ones like API clean-up but the most generic ones.
