I would like to join the Debian development team.  How do I get started?

The two things I would like to work on are:
1.  Lightweight programs for burning CDs and DVDs: The KDE and GNOME distros 
come with CD/DVD burning programs that INCLUDE verification.  Most lightweight 
distros do not.  I use antiX/Swift Linux, and I dual-boot with Puppy Linux for 
its PBurn and iso2cd programs that provide verification WITHOUT bloat.  I want 
to provide PBurn and iso2cd for my Swift Linux users, and I think that users of 
other Debian-based distros would also appreciate lightweight CD/DVD burning 
programs that offer verification without bloat.
2.  A trash program: GNOME and KDE come with trash/recycle bins but ROX 
pinboard does not.  I've had difficulty getting libtrash to work properly.  
Again, a trash/recycle bin is a feature that the heavyweight distros have that 
I think can be implemented in a lightweight package.  Again, this is something 
that users of all Debian-based distros would be interested in.

P.S.  I am seeking developers for antiX-based Swift Linux.  Think of antiX as 
the Ubuntu of the lower part of the Linux market.  Swift Linux is analogous to 
Linux Mint.  My target markets are Windows XP users and the Ubuntu/Mint users 
scraping by on only 512 MB of RAM.
