(When in doubt, mimic what the people you are emailing seem to do with their mails.) It's usually best if you have something specific in mind, but if you're curious in general I can recommend subscribing to this list and reading the traffic for a little while to get an idea for the types of projects that are being worked on. You might see something that catches your eye, or something that a developer dismisses as a "nice to have, but I don't have time for right now" that might be a good chance to investigate further. It might be hard to get a grander view of the work at first, but if you are determined to learn more about KVM I'd recommend building the module from source and reading through the wiki and try to familiarize yourself with the tooling. Do you have much C programming experience as a sysadmin? You might find it hard to make much meaningful headway without it. Never too late to start, but you might find it easier to learn C outside the kernel instead of within it.
