If you have any specific questions about packaging, please don't
hesitate to ask them on the Debian mentors list and or IRC channel.

Things like dpkg/apt/sbuild are good targets for use of C/C++ knowledge.
There are a lot of Debian services and tools written in Python, for
example the ftp archive, mentors, snapshot, wiki, derivatives census,
DDE, UDD, the new PTS, NM, contributors site, deb.li, debtags, ud,
security tracker, debsecan, distromatch, planet, portfolio service and
probably more.
Basically, pick a part of Debian and probably it needs people to help out.
