Having done exactly that for GNOME (a community which, AFAICT, is more tolerant of newbies than LKML) it isn't easy. It requires a fairly deft political sense (if you irritate people, they flip the bozo bit, and it is really hard to get them to listen to you again) as well as good technical judgment (requires good engineering taste more than actual ability to read code, I found.) The combination of both of those is rare- if you have a deaf political ear, or poor engineering sense, years of reading mailing lists won't help you.
