I hear that several patches are already being submitted to the Linux kernel thanks to its "onboarding process" nature.

Would something like this make sense for Tor? Is there any active work under way on improving developer onboarding? Thanks.
This sounds like a fine idea!
Our current process for developer onboarding is less a process than a set of coincidences moderated by good intentions. Let's try to fix that.
My enthusiasm is high for something like this, but I'm already doing to many projects to lead something like this and expects good results. Would anybody like to take the lead on trying to come up with something here? (I'd be glad to contribute, but I shouldn't take prime responsibility.)
I'd be primarily interested in getting more devs looking at tor per se -- the network program that I spend my time on -- though if other projects leads think they need something like this, that would be fine too. I suspect that there probably wouldn't be just one trac for all these projects, though.
