Sounds good and really interesting for team maintenance in Debian Med.
Thanks for contacting us.

Definitely. We have quite a record to get newcomers involved and I hope
I'll be able to proove that things are not that hard to do. We have a
team policy[3] describing the necessary steps to become a Debian Med
member and how to work with our packaging git repository. Moreover we
are running a Mentoring of the Month[4] project which is probably exactly
what you want to do.
If you agree I'll add you for the month July (well, we are in the middle
of July - if you need longer assistance this is granted for sure) and
you could start with creating a login on alioth.debian.org (as described
in [3])
Kind regards and thanks for your interest in Debian Med
Andreas.
