One that interests you.
I might think that a system to control the irrigation of my hydroponics 
garden is fascinating but you might find it boring compared to one that 
translated Norse runes into English...

You will always be more motivated working on something that interests 
you and for which you have a personal use. (Or alternatively, one for 
which you get paid large sums of money! :-)

Do a search on SourceForge and Google and see what comes up.
Look for signs of activity otherwise you might wind up owning the 
project! Start with documenting, testing or bug fixing.
