Another place you may be able to help a lot is CPAN, by looking through the long-term bugs of some modules (Here I'd actually recommend lesser-known modules.. if a bug remains in a big module it's likely to require extensive reworking) you may be able to find a programming task that you feel confident in, with a module in a domain that interests you.
