Well, I think the obvious choice would probably be a subset of
projects from
https://github.com/fedora-infra - something like bodhi,
python-fedora, fas, and fedora-packages.
Sure, but do check with us first, since fas and fedora-packages are both
in maint mode/zombie walking. bodhi is a good active one, there's
probibly others.
I don't know how approachable those projects are for newcomers,
but
since they're written in python, it can't be too bad, and there are
some issues marked as "EasyFix" as well.
(Im also working on rust bindings for bodhi and koji at
https://github.com/ironthree, which could also use some help.

Cool!
