Try `cvs -d:pserver:address@hidden:/sources/gnugo co gnugo' from
the command line.  It will create a directory named `gnugo' with the sources in
it.  A GUI client should work too.

You don't need anything special to become part of the development team.  Just
post patches (`cvs -u diff' should be enough to create them) to Trac tickets
(side note: how comes Trac is not linked [in an obvious way] from the site?)
or here.
