I work on the OpenStack-infra team and I've been hacking on Gerrit for a while. I'm the infra team's sole Gerrit developer. I also test all our Gerrit upgrades prior to infra upgrading Gerrit.  There are many Gerrit feature and bug fix requests coming from the OpenStack community however due to limited resources it has been a challenge to meet those requests.

I was wondering whether there are any other folks in our community who might also like to hack on a large scale java application that's being used by many corporations and open source projects in the world.  If so this is an opportunity for you to contribute.  I'm hoping to get more OpenStackers involved with the Gerrit community so we can collectively make OpenStack better.  If you would like to get involved let the openstack-infra folks know[1] and we will try help get you going.
