Hello Michael;
There are many interesting things to do with Java: we could use a general update to the code to use generics (I think Eclipse has tools for that) and we have stuff like Lucene that I am pretty sure needs a review to see where we can use the new features. hsqldb could also use some tender care: we even have code for review that no one has looked at. You could make a walkthrough SVN to see how the code is distributed and have a try to build it in your platform. I am not going to lie: the code is big and some parts are scary (hey it's C++ !) , but with patience you get to understand enough to make a huge difference.
