Have you tried building the packages, and or figuring out how to fix any outstanding bugs. Make your own debian package(s) of fvwm by downloading the current source. Once you think you are ready, you might contact the current maintainer with your intentions. > > In other words, I'd like to do something useful in my position but I'm > not sure what.

If you are itching to help out, look at some open bugs in the BTS, try to fix them and send patches to the maintainer.
