Hi.. The first thing that always comes to mind for me is to track down
bug reports. For the kind of project you're talking about here...

Maybe track down *wishlist* bugs where users are asking for features
that don't exist yet?

Always feels like there's half a bazillion bug reports spread across
all the various distributions on the Internet so starting with a
keyword topic helps. If nothing friendly sounding pops up, maybe what
you do find will still spawn an idea that's attractive to your
talents.

Good luck! :)

Cindy :)
