See http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ Find something that matches your skills, intersts, and time available. "packages up for adoption" have a possible sponsor attached (the current maintainer) "orphaned packages" need maintainers "requested packages" are things debian users want > I regularly use >the the kernel build tools (kernel-package), and I can see some >improvements that could go in there. I am also interested in apt & >deity development. For things with active maintainers, you can send patches to the existing bugs. For new features, file a wishlist bug with patch. (You should discuss this with the current mainatainer before spending much effort doing this though.)
