Maybe you don't want to pick a bug yourself, you just want a task to work on. Install PyBugz:

http://github.com/ColdWind/pybugz/

Easiest way to do that is to download the package, go into the directory and run:

sudo python setup.py install

Then you can do a search. This one will get all the minor open bugs:

bugz search -b http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/ --status=NEW \
  -a nobody@dreamwidth.org --keyword effort-minor -q > minor_bugs

TODO: Find best randomize method or add it to PyBugz itself.
