Hi, I'm not a maintainer or anything, indeed the only subsystem I consider myself part of (quite passively, though) is Netfilter. But my suggestion is to specify a bit more what you are interested in. Looking for just _any_ subsystem won't serve you for long, I can say from personal experience. Try to find out what you are most interested in (it was networks for me), and look for a subsystem that is related to that field. You _will_ need personal motivation when you encounter errors, Kernel world is tough. Once you sorted this out, look for the mailing list of the specific subsystem, this is a good navigation point: http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html although it might not host _all_ the lists, I'm not the expert on this part of the community. Subscribe to that list and start following the threads, you can ask more specific questions there. If you are really in the discovering phase, you might want to have a look at Google Summer of Code. Even if you are not a student, you might find interesting project ideas and have an impression what projects are out there, what the subsystems need. Although, it's not Linux kernel specific, so you will need time to filter the possibilities. Hope this helped.
