Thank you for the feedback! I think that pointing to the newbie label <https://s.apache.org/OcI6> on JIRA (not always tagged reliably) and the design docs <https://github.com/apache/kudu/tree/master/docs/design-docs> section of our Git repo would be a good start for improving CONTRIBUTING.adoc or http://kudu.apache.org/docs/contributing.html (rather than talking about style guides and stuff).
