This is my attempt to start such a list.\r\n\r\nBecause we are evolving as we go along, it must be quite difficult for a potential new contributor to see what is going on and where to start. Especially since our packages have discussion threads that must take hours to read. Yet, we have functionality that is clear and stable enough to offer tasks that are appropriate as a first contact. It seems like a good idea to me to list them at a central place. I think the following entries should be self explaining to what I have in mind. \r\n\r\nPlease post issues that you think would fit into this list. cc: @tbreloff @joshday @ahwillia \r\n\r\n# List of available Introduction issues\r\n\r\n## Losses.jl\r\n\r\nThis package is intended to provide a fast backend for computing loss functions. As such, we would like it to be as complete as possible; even if that means including Losses that are seldom utilized in practice.\r\n\r\n- New Losses\r\n    - [ ] L2MarginLoss [#44](https://github.com/JuliaML/Losses.jl/issues/44)\r\n    - [ ] PinballLoss [#42](https://github.com/JuliaML/Losses.jl/issues/42)\r\n- Documentation\r\n    - [ ] Improve documentation [#46](https://github.com/JuliaML/Losses.jl/issues/46)\r\n\r\n\r\n## Penalties.jl\r\nPenalties/regularization (i.e. Ridge and LASSO) for machine learning.  This may be merged with Losses.jl at some point.\r\n\r\nPenalties currently implemented are Ridge (L2Penalty), Lasso (L1Penalty), elastic net, and SCAD.  \r\n\r\n- New Penalties (edit from chris: these bullet points need actionable information)\r\n  - [ ] MC+\r\n  - [ ] other?\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JuliaML/Roadmap.jl/issues/comments/247075338","html_url":"https://github.com/JuliaML/Roadmap.jl/issues/14#issuecomment-247075338","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JuliaML/Roadmap.jl/issues/14","id":247075338,"user":{"login":"Evizero","id":10854026,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10854026?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero","html_url":"https://github.com/Evizero","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Evizero/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-09-14T16:39:46Z","updated_at":"2016-09-14T16:39:46Z","body":"Currently it is pretty manageable.
