Hi Bill! Welcome to the MariaDB project. 
Have you read the contributing guides on the Knowledgebase? 

A good way to start is find some low hanging fruit in Jira, and then fix it (we're in github so you can submit a pull request when done).

Let us know if there is anything we can do to help. Cheers.
