Open source community service?

I have some court-mandated community service I need to do. Can anyone recommend an open source project that would want my help? I've done some programming but not professionally. To satisfy the legal requirements it would probably have to be a non-profit. I'm flexible when it comes to what I'll be doing.

Oh dear. I'm sorry to hear about this turn in your life.

In my hometown, these would be two good organizations to volunteer your time at:

• Vancouver Community Network: the regional freenet
• Free Geek: ethical computer recycling

I'm sure you can find equivalent organizations near you.

BTW, how many hours are we talking about?

EDIT: If you *must* work on an open source project, my MPD client can really use a PyQt port of the python-mpd library. This should use PyQt's Qt sockets for asynchronous communication, and emit signals for both return values and errors. Of course, it should do everything else (e.g. parsing the output into Python lists and dictionaries) that the regular python-mpd library does.

Thanks for the reply but Free Geek isn't an option for me and I don't think we have any local freenet ISPs in my area.

Is your OSS project part of a non-profit?

No it's not.
