Difficult when there aren't enough programmer hours available right now to do much coding.  That's similar to many open-source projects.  Documentation and or walk-throughs are difficult to come by, or outdated.

Best I could suggest would be to start looking around.  That's how I got involved in other open-source projects in the past.  Learn by doing.  You'll learn it better that way anyway.

Come back here and ask specific questions, maybe one or two at a time per e-mail, as you come across things that don't make sense.
