That is overall what I have found in the Rust community. Everyone is always helpful and the community is very welcoming. This is good for Rust lang, as by its self, is not the most noob friendly.
I'm actually working on making rustc easier to contribute to. It's already not very hard to work on (you don't need to submit groundbreaking patches to borrowck for a first bug, plenty of easier things to work on!), but the framework that helps newcomers ease into contribution needs work.

(Currently I'm cleaning up the easy issues list and adding hints/pointers to the questions)
If you have any specific feedback, I'd love to hear it!
