An interesting one that I haven't had time to help on yet is the
"extensions for unittest" project:

https://code.google.com/p/unittest-ext/issues/list

Basically it's adding an extensions framework to the stdlib unittest
module.  I'm sure Michael Foord wouldn't mind the help.  Like I said,
a very interesting project, though not directly related to
accessibility or security.
