Thanks, more help is always welcome. :-)

Depending on what you're interested in working on and what your skillset is,
here are some areas that need attention:

 * Further extension of the documentation, in particular background documentation
 * further enhancement / extension of the porcelain commands
 * Performance analysis and fixing of performance bugs (especially for 'dulwich rev-list')

The bug tracker has a number of open bugs, some of which should be reasonably
easy: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dulwich/+bugs

The porcelain commands are possibly the easiest thing to get started with.

Cheers,
