The next step I would like to take is, as instructed previously, ask if
anyone has any open projects that they would not mind mentoring me on.

Is there anything in particular you would like to develop? I would be
willing to mentor you.

Hello Jatin,
if you prefer to play more with something specific before figuring out, as per Damjan's suggestion, something you wish to work on, you could start with a 4.1.2 bug that is currently being discussed.

Apparently Base on Mac OS X (only on Mac OS X) has a bug that makes it impossible to create a table in design mode. It will help if you have available 4.1.1 (where this works), 4.1.2 (where this is reported to be broken) and your own build. You should confirm the bug on 4.1.2 and on your own (trunk) build. Then you can try reverting https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121492 and checking whether this fixes the problem. The relevant Bugzilla issue is https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126622 but it's highly recommended to read https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=80059 too.

This would be a very nice way to start.

Then, as Damjan wrote, you should tell us your preferences, at least the modules you use more often. One medium-size project related to Impress could be this one https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=122494 but this depends on your interests.

Regards,
  Andrea.
