Main interests are Django, AI, Raspberry. It has a goal of practicing community building at the same time so contributing to an existing project is not feasible (but is on my bucket list:).
Well, all I can suggest you is to build something you're passionate about. Try looking at a small problem that you can solve with this tools. Someone I know did an awesome thing with Python, Raspberry Pi and few sensors. He created a simple setup that would bring down the curtains of his room once the intensity of sunlight outside went beyond a certain threshold. This allowed him to have an hour of extra sleep :)
Maybe start something small. I wrote a python package to interface a Kostal inverter for a photovoltaic system. I needed it myself and decided to put it out there afterwards:<p><a href="http://blog.tafkas.net/2014/08/01/pikopy-a-python-package-for-working-with-a-piko-inverter-from-kostal/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.tafkas.net/2014/08/01/pikopy-a-python-package-fo...</a><p>It is also on Github: <a href="https://github.com/Tafkas/KostalPikoPy" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Tafkas/KostalPikoPy</a><p>And on Pypi: <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pikopy" rel="nofollow">https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pikopy</a>
