 If you're not confident fixing bugs in the core code, there are still other ways to contribute:
  * Triage the [http://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&order=priority&stage=Unreviewed unreviewed tickets] -- try to reproduce the issues they describe, or handle them according to the [http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/contributing/#ticket-triage triage guidelines].

  * If the explanation of the bug isn't clear, work out what the reporter is talking about and add that in a comment on the original ticket.
  * Find bugs that have been confirmed and explained, but haven't got a programatic test case. Every bug that is fixed in Django should be accompanied by a regression test to make sure the problem doesn't arise again. Once a test case exists, it's much easier for someone who understands the internals to fix the problem.
  * Look for tickets [http://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=new&status=assigned&status=reopened&needs_docs=1&order=priority&stage=Accepted needing documentation] or needing improved documentation and try to complete them.
  * Verify that old bugs still exist. Sometimes bugs get inadvertantly fixed; either they're re-reported but not identified as duplicates, or a fix for one bug corrects another bug. These old tickets will continue to linger in the bug tracker unless someone confirms that they are no longer a problem.
