Asides from picking a new package, I'd recommend joining a team which
maintains an existing package. You can do the "fly on the wall" thing
on a commit-by-commit basis, and your first contribution can be as
simple as spelling correction, as appose to an entire package from
scratch.

See also the debian-mentors mailing list, where such things are on-topic.
