OpenBSD project goals

Each person working on OpenBSD has their own aims and priorities, but the goals of project as a whole are to:

Provide the best development platform possible - with full source access for openbsd developers and users
Work towards a machine independent source tree.
Support as many different systems and hardware as feasible.
Be as politics free as possible - solutions should be decided on the basis of technical merit.
Provide a good cross compile/development platform.
Integrate good code from any source with acceptable copyright (Berkeley style preferred, GPL acceptable, NDA not).
Import external packages with minimal modifications - making upgrading much easier. Also to submit back to the developers any changes made.

There are various ways in which people who have time to spare can help the OpenBSD project. Some require technical knowledge, while others do not:

Tracking NetBSD commits
OpenBSD was originally derived from NetBSD, and still tracks the changes & improvements made to NetBSD. If you have the time to assist in such work please get in touch with Niklas Hallqvist <niklas@openbsd.org>
Sparc esp driver
The sparc esp scsi driver has two known problems - on some systems with a floppy drive the scsi probe will hang unless there is a disk in the drive, and more seriously multiple scsi targets do not currently work. The current driver was written by Theo de Raadt <deraadt@theos.com>, (now back from vacation :).
Documentation
Enough said - everyone is always looking for people to help on documentation!
