So, let me ask this a different way...are there any resources on the
wiki or elsewhere that a potential contributor would be advised to
read? It seems to me that the whole CLA signing, FAS account
registration, group addition request process for becoming a
contributor is less inhibiting than actually learning what the team
(s) need help with and how to pursue giving such help.
That's something that may need addressing for the future...but in the
meantime, I'm more interested in getting myself started.
Would a page like
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/CVS be good
to read, or is it too outdated (since it still references
fedora.redhat.com). Any help?

I think Karsten's suggestions to take the tasks off the Schedule
page and organize things along similar lines as http://
fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Tasks#HowToTakeATask describes
is a good idea.
Also, as I said before, I may need to become more familiar with the
ways the team commits changes to files, how the CVS system works,
who has access/responsibility over what, and other such things
before I am truly useful to the team. Where would be a good place
to start on learning such things?
