Hello Yajna, I think this is a very valid point - we have no place whatsoever to ask "newbie questions" - and where people who are new are not intimidated.
Or rather we did not have; I just added a #newbie-questions channel in our slack and I hope that will encourage people to ask even basic questions there :). I will do some advertisements for that channel now - to get more people to answer questions there. You can subscribe to slack here: https://apache-airflow-slack.herokuapp.com/ and the channel is here https://apache-airflow.slack.com/archives/CSS36QQS1 J.
