I am a soon-to-be-graduating CS major, and I have been working with FreeBSD for several months now. I primarily use FreeBSD for my CS course development work, but have been exploring Apache and many other services for quite a while. I would like to get more involved with FreeBSD and am wondering how to do so. While I do have some C programming knowledge, I'm not quite at the level where I'd be able to do OS programming. However, I have some technical writing experience, and I would be really interested in finding out about opportunities for working with documentation or other non-hardcore-programming tasks. Please let me know how I might find more information about this. I did read the web page, and it said a good place to get started was the Docs page. However, it seems like there are a lot of projects which people are already working on, and it's hard to know which ones would be good to jump in to.
