You can choose a package to work on, get the latest version from it in darcs,
changing the version in debian/changelog, check if the copyright has changed in
the new version, check if the're reverse-dependencies with versioned dependency
in the older library, if not, check if all reverse-dependencies build with the
newer one. After you did this, ask somebody for the inclusion in the group and
push your changes.
Ask if you have any doubt.
Greetings.
