Earlier quoted context omitted.

Why do you single out documentation?

Nothing wrong with documentation. I would do it just not the only thing I want to be doing. Do you know a good road map to make substantial contributions?

I'd focus on fixing bugs in the beginning.

Download Wordpress and try making a plugin. Play around with it and see what good programmers have done. You can try this for other software too (pick your language). It's one way of working with great programmers.

Right now my main interest is mastering C or C++. Do you know a good open source project I could get started with?

Stick to C. Have you read K&R, yet?
