hello everyone, I am a undergrad student and have been using wine on my linux for a while. I am a big fan of this program and I want to contribute a lot to this. I have been through the getting started page. Is there anyone who could tell me the projects which are open and I could contribute to. thank you

I am definetely not a software developer and don't know that many programming languages but I am also a big fan of wine.
I mainly write AppDB reports and send in bug reports when I encounter them, do tests etc. What I would suggest is following the bug reports on http://bugs.winehq.org and test the applications in question, maybe do regression tests, test staged patches etc. I am also in the middle of translating CrossOver into German. It's now at 93% currently.
I think reading about the bugs and subscribing to bug reports would be a good starting point.
Currently wine is in release candidate status and no more features are currently being added but development will definetely go on.

Most projects are open to work on, but some require more experience/knowledge than others.
We can't really give you advice without knowing what you're interested in / what skills you have.
http://wiki.winehq.org/Developers is a good starting point
