    I've been trying to find an opportunity to contribute to the Debian project.

    There are many places to contribute and many things that need doing,
    some are documented here:

    https://www.debian.org/intro/help
    https://wiki.debian.org/how-can-i-help

    I have dabbled in all of the following:
    bash, C, Java, Python, Apache, SSH, git, apt, HTML, packaging, ...
    So if there is anything I can do, please let me know!

    If you don't have a particular problem in Debian you want to solve, I
    would encourage you to work on this project:

    https://tracker.debian.org/

    Here are the guidelines for working on the Debian package tracker project:

    https://qa.pages.debian.net/distro-tracker/contributing.html

    If you aren't interested in that, there are some other QA projects
    listed here, the most important ones are lintian, piuparts and autopkgtest/debci:

    https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org

    Also, lots of Debian services could use your help:

    https://wiki.debian.org/Services

    PS: if you encounter any unfamiliar jargon, our glossary should be
    helpful to you:

    https://wiki.debian.org/Glossary
