Most of the development efforts are on the mailing lists:
http://lists.debian.org/
The lists are divided by the areas of activity. You can look at the
archives of the mailing lists there as well.
You might also want to look at http://wiki.debian.org/, which
holds some other aspects of the collaborative work.
Hope that helps.
