Absolutely @brandonseydel Please come join us in working on vNext along with anyone else from the community who reads this 
A good place to start is by looking through the RFC issues in the aurelia/aurelia repo. There may be some there that you want to provide feedback on or perhaps help to work on. You may also see something that’s missing that you want to create an RFC for. If you’re looking to ease in to the process, then one big open area we have is to port a number of the plugins from vCurrent over to our vNext monorepo and fix them up to ensure they work with the new build process and new framework versions. So, this would be things like i18n, store, fetch-client, validation, etc.
Let me know what interests you most and I’ll try to guide you and get you connected with the right people. Thanks!
