Hi, and welcome! Would you be interested in helping with KMahjongg
perhaps? Lately I did not have time to work on it at all, and if you are
willing to help there are some issues and feature requests in bugzilla
that you could try to fix/implement. KMahjongg is a game that lots of
people love to play and also how I got into KDE development, so if it
worked for me it can work for you as well :)
