No reason this has to be off list.  Basically, you make your changes by
submitting patch files to the developers' list, which you can join, or,
if they are in response to specific bugs, it is better to submit these
patches as attachments to the specific bug in bugzilla.  Then you have
to find a committer to put them into the build.  This was a problem for
me because I wasn't a committer then.  And frankly, you may have to do a
little nagging because the committers are busy people.  (Try to be nice
in the nagging).

However, you have one advantage I didn't have - me.  I am now an Ant
committer, I understand the code since I wrote it, and I'm willing to
help you.  So I'd ask you to also email me when you submit a patch.
I'll look it over, and if I find nothing wrong, commit it, or send it
back to you for revision.

And thanks for volunteering!

Steve
