[Lindows vs. Debian]

I don't know if Lindows is at all Debian related. In any case, it's quite 
radically changed, so if you want to contribute to Debian, it would probably 
be better you spent some time learning administrating a Debian computer, and 
possibly learning some programming skills in the most important languages in 
Linux - C, perl, shell skripts, perhaps python.

If you want to contribute without programming: have a look at the web site and 
the various documentation in the debian system, perhaps you see something 
that needs improvements. Make sure you read the existing bug reports in 
http://bugs.debian.org first - people react a bit allergic if somebody 
proposes the same thing for the 337th time...
