I've been trying to ignore this thread, but Derek,

Next time try clicking on the link that Rahul provided (before
assuming), which just to repeat was:

You might notice that the "community" needs help with more than just
programming....  Fact of the matter is that most of the programming
issues are being addressed, shy of the developers having their code
tested on a wider array of hardware/environments.  The bigger problem
areas are support (separating actual bugs from misconfiguration) and
feedback (documenting the bugs for the developers to then fix)....  I
don't think this project is lacking in coding resources.....

Take a look at the above page.  From your other posts, I'm guessing that
you have some talent that would fit quite nicely in a couple of those
areas....
