Thanks for the heads up Sebb!

Folks, I believe there is nothing for us to do since we removed our
link into the helpwanted app just over 2 years ago since it was
getting out of date and we weren't keeping the info in sync with Jira:

https://github.com/apache/groovy-website/commit/62b9566ae

Having said that, currently we use the "contrib" label in Jira to track issues:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11482?jql=project%3DGROOVY%20and%20labels%20%3D%20contrib%20AND%20resolution%3DUnresolved

I'll note that a few other projects instead use the "help-wanted"
label. Perhaps that is more intuitive. Thoughts?

I'll also note that we haven't added many "contrib" labels recently.
If anyone has some free cycles, finding and labelling a few issues
would be a valuable contribution.

Thanks, Paul.
