Hmmm---nothing to do---makes me wonder why you went to school.
What is (was) your field of study? Do you have a job lined up?

Go to sourceforge and browse the different Open-Source projects to see what help they are looking for.

For me----Please figure out why the Gutenprint driver for GIMP won't print 4x6 full-bleed. (Gimp-print would do it)

Wite a GUI for mplayer that includes all/most of it's options. Like encoding.

So users will be able to use one GUI to do everything mplayer is capable of.

By definition, isn't MPlayer one app to do everything that MPlayer is capable of?

Are you creative? In the sense like Arts(paintings/drawings), performing Arts(music/song/dance) or in terms of CGI(designs/animation/modelling)??

I think you should do programmers everywhere a favor and implement the DWIM command.

What? You don't know what the DWIM command is? Well, let me enlighten you.

Do What I Mean.
