Hello, My username is rbaasland and I would like to contribute to the analytics project. I was wondering if I could have access to the project, or how I go about contributing to this project?
Thank you very much,
Ron Baasland

Could you elaborate a bit more on your interests please, if possible? :)
I am not part of the Analytics team, but if you're interested in writing code, you could check out the "easy" bug reports linked under "Analytics" on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Annoying_little_bugs
Cheers, andre
Thanks Andre!
Hi Ron -- thanks for reaching out. We have a project called Wikimetrics[1] that helps the community understand what specific groups of editors are doing on the site. It's generally the first project one works on in Analytics. The readme[2] has information on how to set up a dev environment.
Here is a simple bug that would be a great way to familiarize yourself with developing for analytics.

Please let us know how things are going or if you have any questions.

Thank you for your response Toby!
I ended up becoming very busy, but now I have time again to contribute to open source. I am going to start setting up my dev environment and I forward to getting involved with the project.
Thank you again!
