Since the move to Github, we've started to receive lots of
introductory questions to the bug tracker. I posit this is because
most projects on Github don't have mailing lists, so the culture on
Github is to use the Issue Tracker as a discussion forum.
The Go project doesn't use the Issue Tracker as our first point of
communication. This CL updates CONTRIBUTING.md (which is linked when
you file a bug or send a pull request), to mention that we have a
mailing list.
It certainly won't stop all the errant bug reports, but it should
help.
