For some reason I thought you had a commit bit; we can add you in if  
needed.  Anyway, patches are most definitely welcome ;>

No as the issues are more complex than one single bug, but we do have  
something to help track for the time being:

http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/GFF_Refactor
http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Align_Refactor

I'll probably file TODOs during the process for those refactors.  The  
easiest to tackle would be probably be Align/LocatableSeq refactors.

PS - Don't feel constrained by the above.  There are many many areas  
to contribute to.
