anything to do

[lordverminard]

i hav just finished learning pythob from "A byte of python"(an online
book) so i wanted to apply my new skills. to learn and to have some
fun.
is there any place which lists jobs to be done...you know minor jobs
and requests thats nobody has found time to do.
i would point out that i am not looking for a JOB as job with payment.
i am looking for a JOB that is to be done and nobody has done it yet.

also aside from this is there any other way i could use python and
improve. i figure this practice will make me a lot better. but if
anybody
else has any ideas than that would be good too .

Not all of these are pure Python, so you may have to wade through a bit
to avoid the C ones, but a good place to look is the Python trackers on
sourceforge:

Fixing bugs in Python is always greatly appreciated, and could
potentially be a good way to better learn the language (and its standard
libraries).
