Shell scripts are ones that I do all the time, sometimes in BASH sometimes in python + system calls. A lot of the mainly for post-install setups of Ubuntu / Fedora / Arch trying to take some of the load off of my hands in a way that I actually know what is going on behind the scenes. But I'll definitely go and check out bugtrackers, I posted this same email to the kde mailing list and one of the developers told me to check out their Junior Jobs, which are things such as comment clean up, spelling errors and things like that so its an introduction to the code itself and I can ease my way in.
Thanks or the quick responses guys! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
