If you still are a student you can apply for GSoC 2014, but I assume
this is not the case.

A good way to get started is to read cgal-discuss and see if there are
issues which are still unresolved or which require more work to be
easily reproducible. If you can provide an sscce [1] for those and
possibly a patch and rationale against the latest release, you would
help a lot.

The cgal-tag on StackOverflow.com [2] is also a good place to start.

Unfortunately CGAL is not very good a bug-tracking so there is no
bug-tracker to just go to and do bug triage, but that will probably
change in the future.
