I'm a developer with decent design skills and I would love to work on an open-source project in both roles, although I have looked on CodePlex a number of times to see what I could join. I rarely ever see any design openings, and more often than not a lot of solutions in project repositories don't even compile.
It's easy to say that designers are needed, but anyone who has spent time in a design community of any kind would know that there are loads of designers out there that would love to get their stuff out there. I'd love to do design work for a decent open-source project while I get used to the code base to help with the development; I'm willing to bet that many others are in the same boat.
