Hello Maciej,

I personally work on Biopython, but welcome all the same!

The mailing lists are still live, but low volume. Your should also check
GitHub:

https://github.com/biojava/biojava/

Specifically, there are currently a couple of issues marked "Help Wanted",
and some marked "task" might be suitable depending on your Java skills?

Another suggestion is to work through the tutorial, and open issues on any
problems you find. Keeping a large set of documentation up to date is a big
job - but also your fresh eyes will see things like hidden assumptions that
the authors may miss. It will also help you getting familiar with the scope
of BioJava.

Good luck,

Peter
