A good way to get guidance is to drop by in the #gimp IRC channel on
gimpnet (irc.gimp.org) and state your question.

It might take a while until someone reacts, but there are people out
there that know their way around in the code and are willing to help.

Some advice though: We generally frown upon I have a question. Can
someone help me? or anybody here?...   :)
Make sure to ask as specific questions as specific as possible.
This increases the chances on getting a reply a lot. 

Glad you want to help!
Simon

 code yet. Someone on irc suggested I check the news on gimp.org from
 2012-05-04, about porting little things.

 So, how can I help?

There are some easy tasks marked in the bugzilla with the GNOME-love tag:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=keywords%3Agnome-love+product%3A%22GIMP%22+

I would suggest that you:
1. Find something that you are interested in.
2. Talk about your planned solution (IRC or this Mailing list)
3. Code
4. Add a Git-Patch to a bug in bugzilla.

Regards,
Tobias
