Hello, I 'm in the same boat as the last person to reply about a year ago...cups is the top listed package for new-commers in the 'how-can-i-help' package.
I've also offered help to nodejs, grub2, icu, and openssl. The debian-js team replied to me, but I had to email the guys directly :P They told me security bugs were the most important these days...not really seeing anything on their list that is appropriate for a newcommer or that has to do with security updates-> unless I'm missing something on how to find those bugs. The guy that took over ICU never replied to me, but to others regarding other topics -> so it appears he doesn't need help. grub2, and openssl have not yet replied to me. If you need any help let me know, I'd like to start contributing to debian. I use testing atm but Id be more than happy to dist-upgrade to unstable on my laptop for the purpose of helping out. I have a brother all-in-one and use the cups wrapper from their site -> since the built-in packages to debian do not work. One issue I've found is scanning when the printer is hooked up to a usb3 port -> guessing that's brothers problem though? But if there's something I can do, please let me know. I'm a c++ developer of over 10 years...I'm good with autotools, and have some experience building a debian package (nothing too advanced). Basically I'm hoping to find an in somewhere appropriate for a newbie to debian to contribute with my skill sets. The request seems very old...so please excuse me not just searching for your bug list and 'going for it'.
