I dig this, it'd be cool to see a similar post for Firefox and other Browsers that are open source.

Mozilla has pretty good documentation for new contributors:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_g...

Code Firefox, a series of videos demonstrating how to download the code and build it (which, btw, takes less than ten minutes for a full clean build on my three-year-old MacBook Pro :)

Bugs Ahoy!, a Bugzilla search engine for "good first bugs" with a mentor's contact information, filtered by programming language or feature area matching your interests:

There are also friendly Mozilla developers on the #introduction IRC channel on Mozilla's IRC server ready to answer new contributors' questions.
