What do you want to do to help?  We are always happy to accept code 
contributions, and we will work with you to do code reviews and such to 
get code ready to commit.  Are there any particular algorithms for data 
structures you are interested in working on?  There are some project lists 
at https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/GraphVersion2 and 
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/SoC2010#Boost.Graph, but do not feel 
limited to those.
