sure it is.

But it is up to you to decide what you would like to do, 
and realise that not every change that is submitted is accepted. Sometimes
things that appear as "obvious problems" turn out to be there for reasons that
are not at all obvious, so before you try fixing things it's usually 
a good policy to ask on the mailing list if it is something that SHOULD be done.

there is a list at  http://www.freebsd.org/projects/ideas/

pick something simple, 
subscribe to current@freebsd.org
discuss your ideas.
