I'll try to point you to coding tasks, in C, or Python :)
If you want to go a bit deeper in the Tails internals you could have a
look at the tasks for:
- Tails Installer, that has many small bugs or possible improvements:
https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails/issues?query_id=120
That's Python and you should be able to work without building Tails.
- Persistence has also many pending improvements:
https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails/issues?query_id=122
- additional software configuration GUI
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5996
- additional software: fix installation of packages requiring manual
confirmation
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/6038
- persistence: reboot button
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5881
- persistence: clearer warning at delete step
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5888
- persistence: optimize window height
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5458
- persistence: display nicer paths
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5311
- You could also work on a new persistent feature:
- persistence preset: touchpad settings (small thing)
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5979
- persistence preset - run arbitrary script (small thing)
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5961
- persistence preset - tor (big and important thing)
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5462
If you want to work on an important bug affecting GNOME in general but
of interest to Tails. See "NetworkManager in Wheezy resets MAC address
to the inital one once disconnected":
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/6294
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708820#c0
