Yes, I saw that.  I'm sure that once the developer summit is over in
Latvia, we will start to work with the site and get more feedback to
you; right now, it's tough to get a whole lot of work done! ;)

2 things that pop up:

Test writing (We ALL should be doing this)
Testing drizzle with ASP.net, PHP, and many other things.

I'm finishing up a blog post with instructions for test writers and that
should certainly help you.  In the meantime, it may be that you'll just
have to hang out on IRC for a while and dig through the code to
familiarize yourself with the basics (it takes a LONG time...) :)

In addition, we need assistance, as always, in *managing* the tasks that
contributors work on, via Launchpad, so familiarizing yourself with
Launchpad is a great idea.

Cheers, and talk to you soon!
