Debian development doesn't necessarily involve writing new kernel code or new device drivers, that's generally an "upstream" task - see SourceForge or Savannah or the kernel development sites. Debian is about some native packages (to do with tasks specific to Debian only) and packaging upstream code for Debian users. Many Debian Developers also have upstream projects, whether in C/C++, Perl, Python or whatever, but the focus of this list is Debian packaging, not upstream development. The mentors list is for helping people who have already prepared a package. Follow the New Maintainer Guide [0] and build your first package, then come back to the mentors list.
