I have pitched in with a few (simple) commits once in a while and am looking to contribute more regularly.
Here's all the code: http://github.com/zeromq/
And a very comprehensive guide: http://zguide.zeromq.org/page:all
And, the contribution process followed is known as C4: http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:22
You can get in touch via IRC, which is #zeromq on irc.freenode.net ; Try to linger around after asking your questions, and someone would eventually respond.
You may also send in your queries to the ZeroMQ mailing list. (http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev)
Some of us also hang out in the #zeromq channel in the Slack group for Golang: http://gophers.slack.com/
Can't recommend http://www.onyxplatform.org/ highly enough. Tight core of extremely talented and passionate engineers who are working on an exciting project in a more exciting space.

Just before Eich's donation, Obama was against gay marriage too and even said marriage was not a civil right: http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/05/timeline-of-oba...
The difference is that Eich never actually apologized, or said his opinion changed. It was always, "Don't worry, Mozilla will be fine!" He argued that accepting bigotry is a form of inclusion. So, all signs point to him remaining a bigot.

Just be careful if you don't share their political views. They just might go digging through everything you've ever said and every cause you've ever donated to and start a witch hunt. Even if you invented Javascript.
A litmus test of a great community is how they deal with people who are technically useful but socially reprehensible.
Magnanimity in victory is a virtue for a democratic society. Do you really think that it's good to have political witch hunts every time the winds change on a social issue?
