I blogged about this on the PHPW blog, but I also wanted to announce it here
PHPWomen has launched a Partnership Program with Open Source projects that openly embrace diversity and have open and friendly communities surrounding them.
I highly encourage you to check out the Partnership Page for more information about these projects, and the OS Opportunities page to see what opportunities are available.
Contributing to an open source project can be a scary thing, but it can also be an extremely rewarding experience. You get to make an awesome project better, you get to connect with different people, and you improve your own skills. Some need help with code, but there are also other opportunities for translating, UI, documentation, user support, and many other areas.
The projects listed as PHPWomen partners are committed to treating everyone with respect and will value your contributions.
We will be notifying the group whenever there is a need for assistance and we actively encourage you to get involved. Everybody wins!

Hey, we've added another project to the list: FUDForum (which, coincidentally is the forum we use here at PHPW.)
They can really use your help, so check it out and see if there's anything there that piques your interest: http://bit.ly/aiT4Hu

There is another project on our list: Joind.in. This is run by Chris Cornutt (enygma) over at phpdeveloper.org. It is a fantastic project that can really use your help. There are several PHPWomen members already contributing to this project.
For more info on what they need help with, you can go to:
http://www.phpwomen.org/wordpress/os-project-opportunities
Also, if anyone is looking to contribute but still isn't quite sure where to start, by all means let me know. I'm happy to help you sort it all out and figure out where to go from here.
Thanks!
Elizabeth
