- [Review other open
PRs](https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=!closed&needs_better_patch=0&needs_tests=0&needs_docs=0&has_patch=1&stage=Accepted&desc=1&order=changetime)
- Contribute to packages in the [Django
ecosystem](https://www.djangoproject.com/community/ecosystem/)
- Explore [other opportunities to
