Hi Gonçalo, Thanks for the interest!

Remoting is an internal engine, so it's hard to find a "newbie-friendly" ticket. I would suggest starting from establishing the Jenkins master with agents and trying various remote operations. OTOH it is still possible to find some low-hanging fruits, especially in the agent-related area. I have created a JIRA filter for newbie-friendly issues specific to remoting. The filter is here <https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/issues/?filter=18184> (you would need to login to JIRA I'd guess). I will make sure to extend the list of tickets there over this week.
