A first step is to file JIRA tasks for the specific work to be done,  
but you raise the excellent question of how do we foster more active  
contributions from the wider community?

It think the Current Needs wiki page is a probably a good start. Right  
now, it looks a bit sparse, and has an "Under Construction" warning  
that would probably deter people. I think it's time we put a bit of  
effort into this page, make it more inviting. We could also link  
directly to its parent "Get Involved" page from the website.

What do other people think?
