Hi Varun, welcome to the project. I suggest you take a look at our Google Summer of Code Ideas to see all of the possiblities of what can be done, it might be a little out of date but for the most part it should be accurate.
https://groups.google.com/group/metalink-discussion/web/gsoc-ideas?pli=1 Given your interest in Java may I suggest a couple that I've been wanting to do for a while, "Browser Based Metalink Download Client" or "High Definition video downloads made faster/error free with Metalinks." Its quite possible you might not be ready to tackle those though and would be better of just starting fresh on something else. Let me know what you think is a good fit for you. If you want a little more guidance we can come up with specific tasks/features for you to do. Most of the source code for these projects is hosted at sourceforge.net: http://sourceforge.net/projects/metalinks/ Anyone can checkout so I suggest you get familiar with how subversion works if you aren't already.
