I brought this up at an OSS meetup I organize in Oregon, and the responses were equally varied. I'm personally drawn to a project with great communication ability and actual encouragement to contribute. A project should be either a learning resource ("this is very specific but you might be interested in how it works") or have broader application for others' use.
