We're hopelessly undermanned, and your skills seem applicable; we'd love to have your help. Most people ultimately work on things that benefit their own workflows. Is there something in particular that you would like to fix or to add? If not, just take a look at the issue tracker <https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/issues> for something to do and CONTRIBUTING.md <https://github.com/fontforge/fontforge/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md> for how to do it.
