[Wlug] Are any of us involved in a freshmeat project?

I am interested in contributing to the LINUX effort. When I go to <http://freshmeat.net/browse/18/> and am overwhelmed by the choices and by the lingo. Are any us WLUG folks involved in any of these? I know our tastes and skills may not match. I may not be able to directly contribute, but it would feel good to get an insight into the workings and the process. Ken Jones
