I just want to add one more word about this: the first step for
contributing is really yours. Join mailing lists, listen, try to know
where help is needed, be curious, find an area you're interested in (it
can be code, but it can also be non-code stuff, like bug triaging,
documentation, etc.), try to solve a small problem that is bothering
you. And have fun.

You really shouldn't wait for people to tell you what to do. There are
really many areas where you can help. Just find one.

And if you have difficulties finding what you can do, just tell us what
you'd love to do and I'm sure we'll be able to show you where you can
help.

Vincent
