The Java plugin bit-rotted over the years unfortunately, so it will be a tough 
task to get this up-to-speed again. But of course, if you're interested feel 
free to have a look at it.

The python plugin is actively maintained and I'm sure Sven (the main author) 
can help you get into the code base.

Well, the easiest way to get started is to fix bugs you've encountered while 
using KDevelop. Did you find any? ;)

If you're just looking for open issues, then bugzilla is a good start:
  https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamed&list_id=1234506&namedcmd=KDevelop%20junior%20jobs

Getting the source code:
  https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDevelop4/HowToCompile

Hope that helps,

Feel free to join #kdevelop on IRC to get further information and to get in 
touch with us.
