That's the spirit. Any project has tasks for newbies and this
is no different. Glad to have you in my team.

Pick something of your choice. If you are any good at drawing, 
"Draw flowchart" would be a good choice.
"Write new stricter siblings for existing rules" should meet your
level of expertise just as well. You could start and play around
with 981173 immediately: copy the rule under a new ID and make
it stricter / paranoid. Once this is done, try and make sure a
uuid is no longer triggering the rule (-> whitelist uuid format
to circumvent the rule; this uuid false positive is a speciality 
of 981173).

More candidates will pop up as we progress.

Best,

Christian
