I want to contribute in development

Hi

I'm Raza ul Haq and I'm studet of computer science at The Islamia University Bahawalpur, Pakistan. I was thinking to make web browser foe my final year project. But then my professor told me that actually web browser is not actually an application which can be developed by one person in a short time, so you just find an open source browser and develop it's any portion for project. I searched about open source browsers I got netsurf, I've joined it's community and now I want to work with you people. So please tell me how can I contribute for you(related to programming), please be detailed as you can I'll be helpfull for me.

Thanks

Regards 

Raza ul Haq
