Hi Roger,
Nexenta is an open community that invites all kinds of help.
Depending on your strengths you might be interested in developing at the
package level, documentation, bug fixes, bug reports and testing new
software. There is an active effort to release a new version of Nexenta
based on the Ubuntu Hardy userland while the current stable release is
based on the Ubuntu Dapper userland.
Your best bet to get involved is to load and learn about Nexenta
while figuring out how it can be made better. Feel free to ask questions
on the mailing list or in the IRC room (#nexenta on freenode)
Thanks,
-Tim
